Teaching students reading and writing together as processes, Expressions: An Introduction to Reading, Writing, and Critical Thinking takes a “complete language” approach to grammar and writing.

Built on the premise that writers learn most effectively when there is a genuine give and take of information, Expressions weaves together topics on reading, grammar, speaking, and study skills. Formal writing assignments—presented step-by-step—ask students either to respond formally to the readings in the chapter or to use the genre to express themes of their own. Using reading and writing assignments, sentence activities, skill spotlights, evaluation charts, and more, Expressions teaches grammar, sentence, and paragraph skills in the context of both student and professional writing.
