Secondary Language Arts Teachers:

The Elements of Language Model Bank http://go.hrw.com/eolang/modbank/  is full of model essays for a large variety of writing genres at the secondary level. When you click on a genre, it brings up a model essay and there are components you can click on to see tips about how to write that particular type of essay.

Tech Tip: The interactive component of this site requires Flash which is no longer supported, but you can still access the printable copies.

Even if you don’t use the interactive component you can use the “View Printable Version” link to download a pdf of the model writing with the components outlined on the side (I attached a sample). The Writer’s Guide link takes to you a webpage that outlines how to write the particular piece.

Providing a link to this on your eBoard or within Google Classroom to this would provide a nice writing support for your students if you are assigning one of these types of essays.
