At the beginning of the year I created a Common Core Opinion Writing for the Whole Year, with intentions of doing a pack for expository, also. Well, life got in the way and I just had not been able to work on it until now. Finally!
I have something to share!
Here is a (general) freebie from the pack, just visit the TPT link here and click the option to "download preview" under the" add to cart" button.
I tried to follow (sort of) the same format of my other pack, but addressing the different components and types of Informational Writing:
How to, Descriptions, Cause & Effect, Problem & Solution, Comparisons, & Sequence
Find it:
The winner is: Kyp!
I am sending you an email right now! Congrats!
Have a great Sunday!
This looks great! I bought your opinion pack and love it. Even though I teach 2nd grade, the standards are pretty much the same so I can use this one too. We are just starting expository writing so I could really use this one.

I have been feeling that my writing instruction has become stale. My kids aren't writing as well as I would like, and I know it is my lack of inspiration. I miss the days when we had good inservice speakers and there were conferences and opportunities to refresh our teaching. Since my district is in the same financial situation as most across the country, we no longer have district sponsored instruction. I have been searching over the last few weeks for new ideas, and your pack would be a perfect thing for me.
