Re: Writing Workshop AND 6 Traits together
Posted by Sheila on 8/28/08
I'd love some very specific mini lessons to start my year
(including read aloud suggestions:)) as I'm brand new to both
6th grade and workshop approach but start both on Tuesday with
6, 7 and 8th. Read alouds and the launch itself are my area of
need in terms of ideas for effectively beginning. Help??!!
Thanks for any suggestions! Sheila On 6/29/08, ms.p-w wrote:
