Book excerpt: Kathleen provides kindergarten and first grade teachers with a tool that reliably helps them assess the development of their young students' writing progress. Her ideas for assessing writing come from her own practical experiences working with teachers and children and have been informed by her extensive research into emergent writing processes. In this book, she describes in detail how children's writing emerges. She then focuses on seven essential components, or domains, of emergent writing (letter formation, capitalization, punctuation, spacing, spelling, style, and content) and how to assess them. -from back cover
