Re: 6 Traits and Collins Writing Program
Posted by Dan Himes on 3/09/09
This post may get zapped, but here goes:
My company is advertising on this site (through the Google ads) for
teachers to test drive/pilot etc. some software for teaching writing
skills. I own the company, but I am NOT an expert in the area
(deliberately), thus requiring me to LISTEN to experts like REAL TEACHERS
concerning product design. The ad title is "Essay Wizard Software," and
I'm asking for pilots.
If you are interested, please click the ad (so teachers.net gets
paid--it's only fair) and let me know. I'd love for you to kick the tires.
Note: it's not a complete curriculum, but more of an "assistant." I
don't know how much you pay for the other stuff, but this is meant to be
very inexpensive for schools. Thanks!
