This edWebinar helps teachers envision a path toward becoming better writing teachers. By taking specific teaching actions aligned with the foundational principles of teaching writing, teachers can improve their day-to-day practice and help students grow as writers.
Literacy consultants and authors Carl Anderson and Matt Glover discuss several of these actions, showing videos of them in action with students to bring them to life. By the end of the session, viewers know how to do these actions themselves and be ready to try them in their own teaching.
This recorded edWebinar is of interest to teachers of the elementary grades.
