Teaching Writing Collection

Writing is hard work at any age, but effective teachers know how to inspire and motivate student writers even as they teach them the difference between a period and a semi-colon. This collection features wonderful writing teachers from kindergarten to high school employing a wide range of effective strategies--including craft lessons, writers' notebooks, small group and one to one conferring, grammar and editing mini-lessons and identifying real-world purposes and audiences. Featured authors include Jeff Anderson, Ralph Fletcher, and Kelly Gallagher.
