Quill

Free, online, tools to make students better writers.
Teachers can use this with individual students or a whole class. This is a great resource for helping anyone with their writing!

Quill’s Mission: Our mission is to help all students become strong writers and critical thinkers.”

Poor writing skills are a formidable barrier to college and career success.
Many young people struggle to express their ideas in writing with precision and clarity.
It’s a problem for them during the school day, of course, but the consequences are bigger than that. Without comprehensive intervention, those with poor writing skills may struggle in college and in their careers.
Schools need writing instruction that provides the thoughtful, well-sequenced (and sometimes remedial) lessons their students need to build basic writing skills. Teachers also often lack the time to provide the rapid feedback that enables revision—the only way to help students succeed.

Once at the site …
Immediately you will be introduced to Quill Connect.
