From Words to Works:   

 Developing Writing Skills in Students of All Ages

 

Featuring

William Van Cleave, M.A. 

 

This hands-on workshop will explore useful strategies for developing students’ writing skills.  The morning will begin with an overview of current writing research with particular attention paid to struggling writers.  Then the focus will shift to how parts of speech and sentence parts apply to the act of writing.  Participants will learn about the components of a good writing lesson and strategies for developing sentence sense in their student writers.

In the afternoon Van Cleave will introduce a structured, sequential approach to developing foundational paragraph writing skills in struggling writers.  Participants will practice idea generation, organization, and the components of basic and expanded paragraphs.

Participants will leave this conference with strategies that they can use with their students on Monday plus a copy of Writing Matters: Developing Sentence Skills in Students of All Ages.
