Hello everyone! Today it’s my pleasure to bring you part 2 of my discussion with the two authors of Welcome to Writing Workshop, Stacey Shubitz and Lynne Dorfman. If you missed part 1, click here!
If you are like me, you might have heard the term writing workshop repeatedly, nodding along with enthusiasm, but in the back of your mind be wondering what the heck it actually is.
For years, I didn’t really know what workshop was, and I often wished there was a resource to not just tell me what it was, but show me as well.
NOW THERE IS! Welcome to Writing Workshop is an amazing resource of strategic routines, tips, resources, and short focused video clips to view and learn with.
From explanations of writing process and writing traits to small-group strategy lessons and minilessons, this book provides the know-how to feel confident and comfortable in the teaching of writers.
If you’re a fan of the podcast, you know that literacy talk is MY JAM, and writing workshop is something I’m incredibly passionate about. Stacey and Lynne do an amazing job at talking about what writing workshop is and is not, and this episode is a perfect primer for anyone who might not know exactly what it is or what it looks like.
