Synopsis:

Stacey Shubitz and Lynne Dorfman welcome you to experience the writing workshop for the first time or in a new light with Welcome to Writing Workshop: Engaging Today's Students with a Model That Works. Through strategic routines, tips, resources, and short focused video clips, teachers can create the sights and sounds of a thriving writing workshop where:

• Both students and teachers are working authors

• Students spend most of their time writing―not just learning about it• Student choice is encouraged to help create engaged writers, not compliant ones

• Students are part of the formative assessment process

• Students will look forward to writing time―not dread it.

From explanations of writing process and writing traits to small-group strategy lessons and mini-lessons, this book will provide the know-how to feel confident and comfortable in the teaching of writers.
