Revise Writing for Appropriate Word Choice

CCSS ELA: W.8.5

W.8.5 With some guidance and support from peers and adults, develop and strengthen writing as needed by planning, revising, editing, rewriting, or trying a new approach, focusing on how well purpose and audience have been addressed. (Editing for conventions should demonstrate command of Language standards 1-3 up to and including grade 8 here.)

TEKS ELA: 8(10)(C)

8(10)(C) Revise drafts for clarity, development, organization, style, word choice, and sentence variety.

This writing strategies lesson focuses on revising writing for appropriate word choice. The lesson includes research-based strategies and strategic questions that prepare students for assessments. In this lesson, students read the question and the paragraph looking for the underline word to be revised. Then, they determine a more appropriate word to replace the underlined word, using a word bank of necessary. Finally, they reread the sentence with the new word to check. In addition to the lesson, there are four more pages for Independent Practice and review modeled after current adaptive testing items.
