Do you have reluctant writers in your classroom? Do you wonder how to teach writing and all of the accompanying skills? This session will provide many practical and engaging ways to get students writing across the curriculum. In the morning, learn how to establish a foundation for writing within the classroom, use freewriting as the backbone of your writing program, target specific skills, build a community of writers in your classroom, and use the picture books on your shelves as mentor texts. In the afternoon, we will explore writing as a form of thinking and the ways it can be used effectively in all disciplines of study.

This learning opportunity is being offered through a grant from Alberta Education.
