THE READING/WRITING CONNECTION:
WRITING WORKSHOP
INSTRUCTOR(S):
Jenni Gries,
Park Elementary
GRADE LEVEL: K-2
The Writing Workshop will focus on
the Units of Study For Primary
Writers: A Yearlong Curriculum
written by Lucy Calkins. The
units of study include Launching the
Workshop, Small Moments: Personal
Narratives, Writing for Readers:
Teaching Skills and Strategies,
Craft of Revision, Authors as
Mentors, Nonfiction: Procedures and
Reports, and Poetry: Powerful
Thoughts in Tiny Packages.
Participants will learn how to write
strategic mini-lessons, confer with
students, assess student writing,
and plan monthly units of study.
This course will offer
organizational techniques to develop
a structured workshop so your
students are writing independently
while you are conferring. The
participants will be actively
involved in creating materials as a
necessary resource to launch the
workshop in the fall.
This course will "connect" with the
Reader's Workshop course.
Participants will have the
opportunity to meet with the other
participants to discuss the balanced
literacy connections.
