“ I have been a member of ADI for about 10 years. Of most value to me is the annual conference, which I have attended about 8

times. The National Conference benefits me because of the skill and experience of the

presenters, the range of sessions from which to choose, and the opportunity to network with other implementers. Most important through, is the practice one gains during the sessions following modeling from the

presenters - it’s not just TALK from the presenters. Invariably, the handouts they

provide are practical and applicable.”– 2011 ADI Conference Attendee

The goal of Essentials for Writing is to prepare high school students to pass the writing component of the high school exit exams in most states, especially in Cali-fornia and Florida. This program may be seen as a se-quel toExpressive Writing 2 in its emphasis on writing. Students learn to write retells, persuasive arguments,descriptions, autobiographical sketches, responses to literature, and stories with specific themes. Different from Reasoning and Writing, there is less logic and science included in this program. To pass high school exit exams, students also need to read fluently. These skills are provided by Corrective Reading and are not included here.
