What kids do
“Plan a writing workshop day: a short mini-lesson, writing time with conferences and a share at the end.”
Printed on the sheet:
- Mini-lesson teaching point (10 minutes)
- Writing time: conferences
- Small group and focus
- Share: who and why
Teacher tip
Keep the mini-lesson to ten minutes so kids have most of the time to write.
How to use it
- Fill it in digitally or by hand, and keep a copy in your sub folder.
- Plan a week ahead so you can gather materials in time.
- Fill one in with the class the first time so kids see what a finished one looks like.
Watch for
Plans so packed there is no room for reteaching. Leave a flex block each week.
Talk about it
- How will I know they learned it?
- How can this help you be ready to learn?
