A Balanced Writing Approach for Young Writers 2009-2010
An educational series for first and second grade teachers. This year-long series introduces teachers to the classroom cultures and instructional practices that research suggests are critical to nurturing and developing young writers.
The team will explore the Units of Study for Primary Writing: A Yearlong Curriculum by Lucy Calkins (2003) and delve into other essential balanced
writing components.
This professional development opportunity is designed to increase teachers’ knowledge base and instructional repertoire for teaching writing. Additionally, participants will study the development of young children as writers throughout the school year.
