What Participants Say:
Mary Ledbetter’s work is not only teacher-friendly, but classroom-proven. Her books are filled with practical strategies and techniques that can be used immediately with all students, from the struggling, reluctant writer to the more proficient writer. These are a “must-have” for every educator teaching writing.
–Jeannie Donoghue

Mary Ellen Ledbetter is well-known for her lessons used at the secondary level, but she has now broken new ground with her latest book. Kindergarteners through sixth graders will blossom as writers with the book "All About Me." It is full of creative and fun lessons that will enable all students, whether emergent writers or developed writers, to find success with their writings.
–Dr. Janet Coleman

Mary Ellen Ledbetter has worked with all levels K-12 at our district. Writing scores have improved, teachers have ready-to-use writing samples at all levels, and students and teachers alike have at their disposal new strategies not only for all facets of language arts but for lifelong learning as well. “All About Me” promises even more and it delivers! What a treasure!
–Lucy Soovajiian
Elementary Supervisor of
the Union City School District
Mary Ellen Ledbetter has transformed writing instruction for secondary teachers and now elementary teachers will have the strategies, tools and inspiration to do the same. “All About Me” is a “have-to-have” resource for language arts teachers in kindergarten-6th grade. The abundant writing samples, ideas for curriculum integration and daily activities will provide the creativity and support to develop writing proficiency in your youngest learners. Mary Ellen has hit a homerun with this one!
–Gayle Woodall, Ed.D.
Executive Director of Instruction, Barbers Hill ISD
In fourteen years of teaching fourth, fifth, and sixth grades, I have never used any material that compares with Mary Ellen Ledbetter’s. Consistent use of Dailies, Smiley-Face Tricks, and open-ended literary strategies will ensure your students’ overwhelming success on standardized tests. Mary Ellen Ledbetter’s books are absolute a must-have-guaranteed-to-work resource for all language arts teachers.
–Sharlene Kahlich, Teacher
Clear Lake Intermediate
If you survive picking up the 500-page tome, you will never regret it. Mary Ledbetter has created a personalized system of strategies for writing, reading, and mechanics that will challenge your elementary students, make them laugh, and show them what strong learners they can be.
