The Vimeo clip "Modeled Writing - Primary" does an excellent job highlighting the mini-lesson portion of Writing Workshop while illustrating the concepts of author study and craft as well.
When viewing this example mini-lesson on author study and craft, you can see it would be great for kindergarten or first grade students; additionally, the mini-lesson's overall structure, high level of student engagement, and use of mentor texts and author study are adaptable and appropriate for writers of any grade level. Consider how mini-lessons and age-appropriate author studies can be used to explore craft and inspire the writers in your classroom.

This sounds like an interesting book...
ReplyDeleteBookworm Central is the premier virtual book fair company Virginia. They were able to support my fundraising needs even though we are located in southern Virginia. I only wish we lived close enough to use them as an onsite book fairs company as well. Remember if you are looking for the premier virtual book fair company Virginia, you need to look no further than Bookworm Central
