0101 - The Best Way to Teach Writing? TRAITS!
A Program for K-8 Educators & Special Education Educators
Presenter: Laurie Holmquist - Madison, WI

Participants will spend the week learning how to craft writing lessons using the 6+1 Traits method of teaching writing. All aspects of writing will be covered, as well as how to reach the reluctant writer. Participants will write themselves, and keep a daily journal for the week. A wide variety of the newest and best titles in children's literature will be available for use in writing lessons, as well as enjoyment. If teaching writing has been a chore, when you finish this workshop, you will be equipped to teach it with enthusiasm and confidence - guaranteed!
