SQ Write, An Executive Functioning Writing Curriculum

A research-based, core writing curriculum that's anything but common!

SQ Write is a unique writing curriculum that combines executive functioning and an original
Self-Questioning technique to provide students with simple yet powerful tools to become effective, organized, and self-reliant writers.

Easy To Implement, Easy to Use

Are you tired of the same-old writing programs and worn out graphic organizers? It’s time for a fresh, innovative approach! SQ Write finally addresses the question, “How can I teach my students to become more confident, self-reliant writers?” The solution is simple. In order for students to become good writers, they must first be good thinkers. Good thinkers ask good questions, and then generate the answers. That’s the beauty of SQ Write – this curriculum utilizes an innovative, brain-based, Self-Questioning technique that provides an easy way for students to generate their own ideas, beginning with a few simple questions!

It all begins with the SQ Write Q Card

The Q Card provides prompts for students to formulate the right questions to generate the novel answers and ideas necessary for an effective essay. Then, using the SQ Write Thought Organizer, students are able to capture these ideas, visually storing and organizing them until they are ready to be put to paper. With the ideas organized and written down, students can read their ideas aloud to make sure they sound “right”. Finally, they will be ready to write organized, structured essays- every time!
Audience: Grades 4-8; Adaptable for High School students.

SQ Write has really helped my students with language impairments increase the length and quality of their writing. Other programs focus on surface organization by providing only graphic organizers, but SQ Write is the only program that gets to the root of the difficulties and teaches a processing strategy."

I absolutely love SQ Write! I love the step-by-step process and the oral language approach. My students love the structure of the Thought Organizer and the Student Workbook – with these tools, SQ Write turns my non-writers into independent writers.

SQ Write maps a clear path through the writing process and breaks it into manageable components, none of which chain the writer's imagination into lock-step thinking. It's inventive, and will birth a new generation of strong, clear writers.
