This five-level series progresses with students as they grow in confidence and ability from sentence level (Book 1) through paragraphs (Books 1-3) and essays (Books 3-5).

Not only do students write an entire paragraph or essay in each unit, they are also given plenty of practice at the sentence and word levels.
