This curriculum guide provides suggested learning activities for a sequential program in composition skills for grades K-12. The composition skills discussed are listed in developmental levels, not necessarily in terms of grade levels. It is recommended that the student become familiar with basic skills before progressing to the more complex ones. The guide is organized so that the teacher can help the student to include in his writing those patterns which he already uses in his speech. The first part of the guide contains activities related to the mastery of writing sentences and the second part contains activities related to the understanding and use of basic patterns of organizing and developing ideas in writing. Each of these parts is divided into activities for levels K-3, 4-6, 7-9, and 10-12. (DI)
