Target Audience: Elementary Writing Teachers, Instructional Coaches

In-Person Session

Participants will learn essential strategies for building and maintaining a strong writing community in the elementary classroom. Discover what students should know and be able to do as writers, along with key instructional practices that support growth and foster independence. We will explore how to use assessment to benefit students, tailoring feedback and instruction to develop writers. Participants will also learn how to shift agency from teacher to student, creating a classroom environment where writers feel empowered and responsible for their own work. The first 15 participants to register will receive a copy of the book Answers to Your Biggest Questions About Teaching Elementary Writing to support the application of these practices in their classrooms.

6 hours of PD/EILA credit will be provided.
