- Individualizing instruction. In this session, you’ll learn strategies for that will help you teach effective small-group lessons and writing conferences, maximizing your ability to differentiate writing instruction for your students.
- Teaching with mentor texts. This session will focus on how to teach students about the craft of writing and conventions using mentor texts. Carl will show you how to this in both direct instruction and inquiry lessons.
- Teaching effective whole-class lessons. In the final session, Carl will help you hone your skill with teaching whole-class writing lessons that set the stage for the more individualized work you’ll be doing in small-group lessons and 1:1 writing conferences.
After each session, you'll have learned numerous practical strategies you can use right away to teach writing more effectively in your classroom.
