Why mentor texts? Serves as a model of what we want our kids to do Supports what we are trying to accomplish in a writing workshop Models for the student “something special” “Mentor texts serve as snapshots into the future. They help students envision the kind of writer they can become…” (Dorfman and Cappelli, 3)

Craft lessons… (ideas to get you started) Controlling time Focusing on a moment Adding details through questioning Show, not tell Beginnings Endings Voice Syntax Variation of print Crafting a character Seesaw scaffolds Repeated refrains Writing from different personas Figurative language Special vocabularies Stylizing writing Conventions Dawn to dusk stories

Previewing a mentor text Look at the books on your table that have been organized View the text through a writer’s eye and as a table group, identify the craft

Gallery walk Preview the texts throughout the room Select one that appeals to you

Why mini-lessons? Short, concentrated bursts of craft instruction connected to authentic student writing Explicit teaching of an element of craft Students apply knowledge on a piece of authentic writing Embedded in writing workshop
