Welcome to Early Access!
You’ve been selected to participate in an exclusive preview of Building Writers: Cornerstones, a new K–3 writing instruction resource from Learning Without Tears.
Early Access begins in late January, and we’re excited for select Grade 1 teachers at each site to explore, teach, and share implementation feedback.

Step 1:
Attend your pre-Winter Break orientation
Before Early Access begins, please join us for a quick Zoom session. We’ll walk through the goals, structure, and expectations for your Early Access Experience.

Step 2:
Register for your Early Access Quick Start session
The Early Access Quick Start is a 60-minute Zoom session designed to prepare you for teaching once your materials arrive.
In late January, each teacher will receive materials to teach two units from Cornerstones, Grade 1:
- One Teacher Guide booklet
- Set of Student Edition booklets
- Individual access information for the Interactive Digital Teaching Tool
We’re Here to Help
