“Because Writing Matters has sweeping appeal to teachers, administrators, and parents alike. It is full of pragmatic tools to increase both the quantity and the quality of writing in schools. Not haughty or esoteric, it is relevant, accessible and, above all, a practical guidebook that presents ways by which writing within the educational landscape can be improved.”--Aiken Essays in Education

“I just finished a fantastic book about writing. In about 120 pages, the authors synthesize years of insights into writing, instruction, professional development, and assessment…I felt like I learned something new with each page, or found on each page some important new validation for what I already do in my own classroom.”-- Jim Burke, author and educator, Burlingame High School, California, CATEnet
