Teaching students how to begin their writing doesn’t have to feel overwhelming.
The Starting Point helps K–2 writers learn how to introduce a topic clearly and purposefully using teacher-led modeling, shared writing, and engaging discussion. Students learn what an opening does, how it “covers” the details (umbrella metaphor!), and how to use three simple strategies: statement, comparison, or question.
No independent worksheets. No confusion. Just strong beginnings built together as a class.
Perfect for early informational writing lessons!
