Using great writing as a model doesn't come naturally to students-it's a skill that needs to be taught. Through the use of mentor texts, the reading and writing connection can be reinforced.
Mentor texts provide strong examples of writing techniques and help transform students into real writers. Each mentor text that I am requesting has something to teach young writers, whether it be an idea, trait or skill, that students can learn and apply to their own writing. These books are an essential part of my classroom library and can be used in all of the grade levels that I teach.
