| Description | |
Do you want to bolster how you teach writing?
Have you felt students need scaffolded support to get their thoughts on paper in an organized way, and you’re not sure how to help?
Write Tools: Informative/Explanatory offers concrete guidance on ways to support students throughout the writing process with strategies that can be used immediately across all grades and disciplines, including high school!
-
The Informative/Explanatory workshop provides K-12 teachers with essential strategies and hands-on practice so they can immediately implement these instructional tools in their classrooms.
-
This course vigorously engages participants in reading and writing strategies and techniques designed to help teach the art of informative/explanatory writing and reading informational text across the curriculum at all grade levels.
-
Special attention is given to how these strategies meet the rigors of Academic State Standards.
-
During the workshop, we focus on the entire writing process, the organization of informational/explanatory text for both reading and writing purposes, and note-taking skills.
Participants will examine the developmental stages of writing, learn and practice research-based strategies and techniques for teaching informational/explanatory writing skills including sentence building, paragraph and multi-paragraph writing, and compare and contrast essays.
