Kelly Felton: Reaffirming the Writing Workshop - Sheryl Lain

http://felton3.blogspot.com/2009/07/reaffirming-writing-workshop-sheryl.html

Reaffirming the Writing Workshop - Sheryl Lain. I didn't post when I initially read this article. There were just too many important points that took my brain in too many directions to focus on the workshop as a whole then. Now I can step back and look at it more objectively with experience from our workshop. July 22, 2009 at 12:13 PM. I am like you and need time away from the article. I have been very pleased with my use of the notebook with middle school students. Christy. July 22, 2009 at 12:39 PM.

Something said, something heard

http://taramandy.blogspot.com/2009/07/everyday-editing-by-jeff-anderson-this.html

Something said, something heard. Monday, July 20, 2009. This article used the example of using commas for list sentences and I immediately said to myself (no one else was around), “ah ha! July 21, 2009 at 6:07 PM. Aside from the particular examples supplied by the author, I was impressed mainly with his idea that we should provide good models, rather than broken ones that need fixing. Why model with something that needs repair? July 26, 2009 at 5:52 PM. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom).

lynnepeters: Stephanie Dix Reflection

http://lynnepeters.blogspot.com/2009/07/stephanie-dix-reflection.html

Monday, July 20, 2009. About his writing when he revised, who was? Does revision have a "taxonomy"? And if so, where have. Is this something that passed me by in the dead of night? The gist of this article is found on the last page, in the second to the last paragraph.wish I had known this before I began. July 20, 2009 at 12:55 PM. I suppose there must have been a generation of researches that were required to memorize a thesaurus and use only the most difficult words in there class.

Gloria: After The End Reflection Chapter VII

http://gloriaspanish.blogspot.com/2009/07/after-end-reflection-chapter-vii.html

Thursday, July 16, 2009. After The End Reflection Chapter VII. Lane point it out in this chapter, the importance of creating atmosphere for the writing workshop. From my point of view these ideas are crucial. Always, I'm thinking every year to do something to light up my student's interest in a way that they can be engaged. In the process of writing. I'm so glad that Lane gave my some tips that I will consider applying in my classroom. July 26, 2009 at 9:44 PM. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). The Art...

lynnepeters: Calkins Reflection

http://lynnepeters.blogspot.com/2009/07/calkins-reflection.html

Wednesday, July 15, 2009. July 15, 2009 at 12:50 PM. July 21, 2009 at 5:58 PM. I took this idea to heart, but wonder how it might look in a junior high or high school setting where learning is so compartmentalized. Do I have them write for 15-20 minutes every day, or for an hour 2-3 days per week? Then, how do I work in reading, speech, drama, literature? How do I maintain momentum in the writers workshop and still meet my state mandates? July 22, 2009 at 3:31 AM. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom).

Something said, something heard: Grading

http://taramandy.blogspot.com/2009/07/grading.html

Something said, something heard. Thursday, July 30, 2009. First grade grading is certainly different from high level grading. I do not give out letter grades and we do not operate on a 4.0 system. Everything is based on pass or fail- -essentially does the student have the skill, is he/she growing in that skill, or is there little to no evidence of that skill yet. I think it is helpful for me as an educator to have that broad view but it certainly does not give the detailed picture. Take Joy by Jane Yolen.

Mercedes: Sommer's Article

http://mercedes1-mercedes.blogspot.com/2009/07/sommers-article.html

Saturday, July 18, 2009. By revising, we had the opportunity to decided whether our writing was sufficiently focused and developed. Moreover, we had a classmate who read aloud to us, so when we found weak parts in our writing, it was the time to rewrite. I believe that revising our writing is very important in order to have a more clear vision of what we wanted to say. July 22, 2009 at 10:53 PM. July 22, 2009 at 10:54 PM.

Gloria: Emig Reflection

http://gloriaspanish.blogspot.com/2009/07/emig-reflection.html

Monday, July 13, 2009. With this conception in mind as a teachers we need to be an example for our students: write, write, write in order to help our students in the process of writing. Furthermore, is our responsability to pass this idea of learner to write to the parents, they need to know the importance of having the same experience of writing as their children. Being the example is always rewarding. July 14, 2009 at 11:25 AM. July 14, 2009 at 11:37 AM. July 14, 2009 at 11:38 AM. Not Quite a Newbie.
