Description
Because of the personal nature of writing, one of the best ways to teach the craft is to interact directly with individual students. To make these vital student-teacher conferences as effective as possible, teachers need to be intentional in their planning and practice. At the same time, they must balance the benefits of conferencing with the challenges of fitting it into their busy classroom schedules. "Responding to Writing: Teacher to Student" demonstrates how five teachers use student-teacher conferences to help their students improve as writers. This free, online workshop provides classroom illustrations of several different approaches to conferring with students including formal one-on-one conferences, informal one-on-one interactions, and formal and informal conferences with student response groups. While the videos take place in middle school classrooms, the skills and strategies taught are readily applicable to ABLE classrooms. All instructions and materials for this workshop are accessed through this website: http://www.learner.org/workshops/middlewriting/
