A 6th grade student is significantly below grade level in writing, unable to produce coherent paragraphs despite individual support and tutoring, leaving the teacher feeling helpless.

Existing interventions like tutoring and in-class support are insufficient for bridging the gap between current ability and grade-level expectations; there's no structured, easy-to-use tool to break down writing skills into small, achievable steps and provide targeted practice.
