All the Places to Love Lesson

After many years of teaching the writing workshop I have found there are some key parts that one must have in place in order to provide a successful environment for the young writers.

A mini-lesson focuses on a specific teaching point and lasts five to twenty minutes. You can teach a mini-lesson with a whole group, small group, or with individual students. Mini-lessons are ideal for quick lessons leading to active engagement.
Steps for Completing a Mini-Lesson
Before you plan your mini-lesson, you need to determine your teaching point. A [...]

I’ve visited countless writing classrooms over the years and it has always been interesting to me why some work and others don’t. I do believe that writing classrooms that incorporate Donald Graves’ seven conditions for effective writing find greater success than those that skip these basic writer needs. I’ve come to think though that there [...]

I like to select mini lessons that can have a dual purpose. Since it is important to integrate my writing workshop with my reading workshop many of my mini lessons are well suited for both workshops. As an example, I demonstrate in class how most stories have one of several shapes. I use the Mentor [...]
