Travis and Whitney explore the "R" in their DRAFT mnemonic for teaching revision: Rearrange. Using examples from both elementary and middle school texts, they demonstrate practical strategies for helping students understand why sentence and paragraph order matters in writing. The hosts share specific classroom techniques, like using note cards to physically move sentences around, and discuss how teaching students to justify their ordering choices builds critical thinking skills that extend beyond the writing classroom.
