The handbook is designed as a learning and resource tool for teachers, K-12. It is organized around eight dimensions of writing that are central to helping students use writing as a tool for meaningful communication: planning, developing ideas, organization, use of language, voice, mechanics and conventions, comprehension and genre understanding.
