How To Use
•This resource supports a Writer’s Workshop structure, in which a teacher models a specific teaching point or strategy during a short mini-lesson (5-10 minutes), students write independently (20-30 minutes), and then meet back together to review and share (5-10 minutes).
•The wonderful thing about Writer’s Workshop is that students can work at their own pace and level. I’ve provided different paper choices so you can best support the needs of your students. I always print out plenty of copies of each level and let students choose their own.
•It may be helpful to have students keep their “Work in Progress” in a writing folder, and then assemble their books with staples at the end of the unit. This way, students can make their own choices about paper used, the length of their book, and how they revise by adding, changes, or rearranging pages.
•When students finish a book early, I usually give 2 options: Add more pages to your book or start a new one. When it is time to revise and edit, they can choose their favorite to publish. :)
