Daily 6-Trait Writing Grade 6
Strong writing is built one skill at a time. Daily 6-Trait Writing breaks the writing process into six essential traits: ideas, organization, word choice, sentence fluency, voice, and conventions. By focusing on one trait at a time, students learn not just how to write, but how to write well.
While the six traits remain the same, the lessons and expectations grow with your student's grade level.
Designed for short, manageable lessons, this workbook provides 125 daily activities that help students strengthen specific writing skills through consistent practice. Each lesson takes about 15 minutes and targets an area that contributes to clearer, more effective communication.
Students learn how to develop stronger ideas, organize their thoughts logically, choose precise words, create smoother sentences, develop a distinct voice, and apply correct grammar, spelling, and punctuation. Because the lessons are brief and focused, students can build confidence without feeling overwhelmed.
Daily 6-Trait Writing works well as a stand-alone writing supplement or alongside a complete language arts program, providing structured practice that helps students become more thoughtful, capable writers.

Daily 6-Trait Writing Grade 6
mamakven
As a student, I was naturally good at language arts. I just seemed to KNOW what I needed to know, and writing came naturally. Not all children, however, have this skill, and I've found its even harder to teach a subject you are naturally good at than it is one that you struggled with yourself! The Daily 6-Trait Writing series is perfect because it turns something abstract, like writing, into almost a science. Its step by step, methodical, and really isn't so intimidating. I am very pleased with the series and wouldn't change a thing.

Daily 6-Trait Writing by Delightful Learning
Michelle
Daily Six-Trait Writing focuses on 6 writing traits: Ideas Organization Word Choice Sentence Fluency Voice Conventions (grammar, spelling and mechanics) These are characteristics that are said to shape quality writing. The books are divided into 5 units, one for each of the first 5 traits. Each week the concepts build on the previous one and a new convention (the 6th trait) is presented each week. It's neat that the convention is taught in the context of what they are writing. Best of all, the lessons are easy enough to do (even for reluctant writers) and only take 10-15 minutes a day. Regardless of whichever writing curriculum I decide to go with next year, Daily 6-Traits will make the transition much smoother!

Great for review.
Virginia M.
Daily 6-Trait Writing, Grade 6 is a handy tool for making sure you have covered all the bases. If you are like us and composition has been a rather casual affair, then you may wonder if your students have really grasped all the important aspects of technical writing. While certainly not creative, this book emphasizes what students need to have learned by around Junior High. We have used this book for seventh grade as a review before starting Wordsmith.

A solution for boys that hate writing
Kimberly
This series has offered me a solution for boys that hate writing. It covers fundamental writing skills in a manner that has been manageable for my boys. Four days a week, there is a practice worksheet that requires relatively small amounts of writing. For the fifth day's assignment, the child is asked to bring together the work done earlier in the week. Much of the writing will have already been accomplished, and will simply need to be added to and polished a bit. This series is a good way to develop strong writing skills in the elementary/early middle school years. I expect to be able to smoothly transition into a more advanced writing program when the time comes.

The Traits Prepare Students for more...
Carol N.
As a literature major in college, and began researching the traits because our church day school uses trait based education in its K-12 day school. I use the traits at home and for classes I teach Middle School Students. This relatively new curriculum provides a framework helpful for every grade in elementary. I have recommended this curriculum for mom's who are intimidated by writing. They are thrilled to have found something that finally works. It's a great choice to encourage your student not only write regularly, but write well (don't forget to explain the rubric at the beginning!) Each lesson has fully expanded teacher notes, and includes a "Bubble" at the top to explain how the trait is used each day. The book covers each trait sequentially, while allowing children to practice writing in a variety of formats including expository writing, persuasive writing, descriptive writing and more. Highly recommended.
