    3.0 out of 5 stars Good resource but pricey, December 6, 2008
    While this is a nice resource, it's overpriced for the content. A better purchase is buying two of Ruth Culham's books, Using Picture Books to Teach Writing With the Traits: K-2: An Annotated Bibliography of More Than 150 Mentor Texts With Teacher-Tested Lessons and 6+1 Traits of Writing: The Complete Guide for the Primary Grades. The first title is included in the crate, and the second more than replaces the very slim teacher guides in the crate. These two titles are a much better purchase. Many more picture book lessons can be found on the internet. (One excellent site is WritingFix.com.)

    5.0 out of 5 stars Ready, set, go write!, December 8, 2008
    This resource needs to be in every second grade classroom. The Trait Crate is easy to use. It has all the materials you need at your fingertips to get a writing program started. If you bought the books that are included,title by title, it would be practically the same cost as the Trait Crate PLUS with the Crate you get ready to use lesson plans. Each Crate has posters that are student friendly and ready to use.

    A great resource to add to any writing program. It is a springboard to having those materials ready to go and create an exciting and well-rounded language arts/reading/writing environment.

    5.0 out of 5 stars Teaching writing just got easier!, December 8, 2008
    By 
    When Using Picture Books to Teach Writing With the Traits: K-2: An Annotated Bibliography of More Than 150 Mentor Texts With Teacher-Tested Lessons came out earlier this year, I didn't think it could get any better. Now the Trait Crate: Grade 2: Picture Books, Model Lessons, and More to Teach Writing With the 6 Traits has arrived, and teaching writing to young learners just got even better and easier! For each trait, there is a well-chosen picture book with a teaching guide that includes three lessons, specific teaching points, and a kid-friendly scoring guide. Also included is a CD of all the trait songs (with vocal and instrumental versions), a poster for each song with the... Read more
