10 Writer’s Workshop Writer’s Workshop is a teaching technique that invites students to write by making the process a meaningful part of the classroom curriculum. Writing is an expected activity on a daily basis. Students are exposed to the organization and thought required to create a story or write about a favorite topic. For Kindergarten students, whose skills will greatly vary, the goal is to more pre-emergent/emergent readers into the writing process by eliciting a story from drawing, recording the student’s words in dictation form on the drawing and encouraging the student to move from drawing to writing by guiding the student in use of phonetics to sound out words. Focus Skills Story Planning Think Aloud Pair Share ( partner brainstorming) Revision and Editing Direct Instruction in the mechanics of grammar Author’s Choice: students celebrate writing
