This writing strategies lesson focuses on clarifying text by creating outlines. The lesson includes research-based strategies and strategic questions that prepare students for assessments. In this lesson, students read a passage and fill out a corresponding outline. They identify the missing main topic, subtopics, and details and fill them into the correct places on the outline. Eventually, the student will fill in an entire empty outline. In addition to the lesson, there are four pages of Independent Practice and review with questions modeled after current adaptive testing items.
