How will you teach writing this year?

 

Consider our Four-Day Writing Intensive for Teachers

Instruction in “teaching writing” will follow “Blended Structure and Style in Composition,” a teacher’s manual written by Dr. J.B Webster which has been adapted to all grade levels from elementary to university.

Attending the four-day session will empower teachers and enable them to successfully incorporate the program into their classrooms. Beginning with note-taking and summarizing from notes, the workshop extends through narrative stories and story sequencing, to research and report writing from multiple sources. Stylistic techniques which greatly enhance the quality of writing and the various models of structure are threaded throughout the program. The upper-level course will advance through essay writing, including models for narrative, expository, persuasive and argumentative essays as well as overviews to extended- and super-essays.
