Best Ideas for Writing Workshop
•Teach to be a peer revision
•Where to turn your work in (folders, drawer, sorting each day)
•Only a few students to share each day, as you conferencing/observing really strive in one skill, asking if they would like to share today
•Strategies to ask during conferencing and sharing – seeing multiple ways of doing it, expose other children to different strategies, vocabulary – what is a strategy
