In Writer’s Workshop, students organize thoughts to create a story or write about a given topic and develop it into an understandable narrative with a voice and focus that present information to the reader.





Writer’s Workshop goals:

·       To challenge the students to expand their ideas in the revision process not simply 'correct' the previous ones.

·       To help students become aware of writing for different audiences.

·       Create focus within a topic and try to see the piece of writing from a distance.

Students will write daily through varied activities in their writers’ notebook.
