Teaching Writing: Balancing Process and Product (6th Edition) (Books by Gail Tompkins) 6th Edition

I actually enjoy this textbook. It's one of the most useful, practical, and applicable for me as a future teacher. I had another one by Gail Thompkins in a previous semester too, and it was just as useful.It's not a boring read, the subjects & ideas are divided well & easy to digest. It actually has fun to read vignettes and classroom ideas in it. I get through it quick and it's not a chore to slug through assigned reading.Boo to Pearson for the dang price hike on these though.

This book was required by one of my graduate classes. Apparently, I had just rented the book and after the class, the book disappeared from my on-line books. This book was so beneficial in helping me put together my Writer's Workshop, that I purchased a copy so that I could have it as a reference. Goes great with 6 + 1 Writing Traits.

So, who doesn't struggle when it comes to writing? Gail is an amazing teacher! Read her book and find out how she addresses writing! I love her books, especially this one, since one of my main areas of interest is writing and how to do a better job!

It was more damaged of what I thoughtBut still goodI love the book itself

I bought this book for my Reading/Writing class. It is well written and contains case-studies, which I appreciate. I am sure I will appreciate it even more when I am a teacher and need ideas for my classroom. I have not used the dvd included, yet.

Great buy for a college student purchase to save money! Book was good and I actually kept it instead of selling it.

I rented this book through AMazon for my college teaching course! It actually arrived when it was suppose to and it is full of great useful information. I wish I would have purchased this book instead of renting it!

the book is useful, and the text is easy to understand. It helps me a lot.It is sent to my home quickly, and the package is good.it is required textbook this semester
