Many students struggle while writing, especially students
with poor language and organizational skills. During this
interactive writing seminar, participants will come to
understand and appreciate the most common difficulties
experienced by struggling writers, including students with
learning disabilities.
Participants will also learn what current research suggests
are the essential components of effective writing
instruction for all students, including those who find
writing challenging.
Finally, participants will discover how Self-Regulated
Strategy Development, an evidence-based instructional
model, can improve students' writing performance and
attitude. Practical classroom implementation will be
demonstrated and multiple resources will be provided.
Come and learn to integrate these strategies within writing
workshops for writers at all skill levels, and to plan lessons
and instructional sequences that really do teach
struggling writers how to write.
