Schultze defines a basic writing tool "as a skill that students need in order to be able to do both the physical and mental tasks to produce legible words on paper." She identifies basic skills, offers lesson ideas, suggestions for student review and ways to make the lessons simpler or more challenging to meet student needs. Examples of student work can be found throughout the book. The book includes a table of contents, a list of recommended resources, appendices and an index.--Ministry of Education website.
