The Tell me! Level 3 structured writing program contains tools and strategies to support a 6-step writing process. The program utilizes a meta-cognitive approach to help students:

  1. Determine what they will write through the use of picture or writing prompts
  2. Connect with their sensory and background knowledge
  3. Develop / identify vocabulary to support their writing exercise
  4. Generate a mental picture which they are able to verbalize
  5. Write
  6. Share and celebrate

Level 3 of Tell me! focuses upon the following writing genres:

  • Descriptive
  • Narrative
  • Compare and Contrast
  • Persuasive

Strategies are provided to differentiate instruction at a Tier 1, 2, and 3, depending upon the needs of a student. The program can be used in a stand-alone manner or as a complement to other programs. Full use of Tell me! supports achievement of best practice standards issued by the Institute of Educational Sciences on teaching elementary students writing. Tell me! is teacher friendly, and easy to implement. The product format enables teachers to be selective in printing the documents they need from an electronic file rather than a print master. This is useful for organizations attempting to limit printing.
