Publisher's Synopsis
What's the Point? is a question we ask of authors who are sharing information. As we craft informative/explanatory essays of our own, we keep key points in mind to guide us as we write. Consider that the Common Core State Standards call out specific strategies for students to use in both analyzing and writing informative/explanatory text. What's the Point? includes resources and topics that are sure to engage students and send them on their way to success in both the analysis and crafting of informative/explanatory texts. The student books are written by students and include student-created art. Each student book features and explores different topics related to an engaging question.
