Writer's Workshop
During Writer's Workshop, students participate in whole group mini-lessons focused on specific writing skills and strategies. The students then practice these strategies during independent writing. As students are writing, conferences occur with individuals and small groups. During these conferences I will provide feedback which will add to the writing instruction and aid in their writing development. The students are exposed to a variety of mentor texts, which provides them with models for different writing techniques. Throughout the year, the students will learn about various writing modes. Below, please find links describing the units taught in fourth grade.
