In the units before this one, students may have been relying on adults to get words on the page (not all students of course) but in this unit, they learn to become responsible for their own words. The idea is that they will now begin to ONLY write words that they can read with certainty. This will be evidenced by pointing to each word and reading it aloud. Each day will give students a new method for achieving spelling and proper sentence structure for writing.
