Covering all areas from brainstorming to revision and editing, Buckle Down's grade 4 & 7 Writing programs are a focused review of the skills students need to succeed on the Mississippi Writing Assessment.  The two external practice tests contain three prompts, one of each type—narrative, informative, and persuasive—to prepare students for all question types they may encounter on the test.

• Grade 4 units include Prewriting, Writing, Improving What You Have Written, and Writing Practice.
• Grade 7 units include Prewriting, Drafting, Revising and Editing, and Writing Applications.
• Activities in each lesson guide students through the writing process from start to finish.
• References to Mississippi places, culture, and personalities help teach in terms of what students already know.

Every student book comes with a FREE Form A Practice Test (pretest) and Form B Practice Test (posttest).
