Imitation Writing

Imitation Writing (Nessel & Graham, 2007) is a strategy to increase understanding of sentence structure and improve written versatility and expressiveness. The student reads a well-written model of a small piece of text, then copies the model word for word. After that, the student substitutes as many words as possible using a different topic. Figure 5.17 gives several examples from books for young children which can be used at any age level.

We hope that you can include these powerful sentence builders with your students and get the joy of praising them for their accomplishments.
