Classroom Discourse and Generative Vocabulary to Strengthen Student Voice

June 24 @ 10:30 am - 11:15 am

Description:

In the pressure to prepare students for EOG, SAT, AP, GRE, and other assessments, it is easy for writing instruction to become teaching by assigning and scoring rather than teaching by inspiring and developing. This session will focus on using students’ own voices (literally) and a generative approach to word choice to strengthen their voices (figuratively) as writers.
