Imagine having a Newbery Medal-winning author in your classroom as
an advisor and a friend, providing personal and practical advice on
how to teach writing workshop in the modern-day classroom. With The
Write Thing, you can do just that! Kwame Alexander is the New York
Times-bestselling author of The Crossover. With more than 10 years
of experience conducting writing workshops in schools, Alexander
shows how to shake up the "traditional" writing workshop and make
writing fun again! His magnetic personality, infectious enthusiasm,
and love of teaching come through to inspire all students to write.
The Write Thing teaches you how to move students step-by-step from
ideas, to drafts, to finished works. Not only will you successfully
motivate your students to write, you'll take that motivation one
step further by providing guidance on how to create student-driven
publications of their work. The confidence students will attain
when they see their writing authentically published will be off the
charts! The book has three parts: Writing, Publishing, and
Presenting. The Writing section features Lessons in Action that
teach students to produce writing that is worthy of being
published. With a focus on poetry, Alexander's writing workshop
uniquely meets the needs of reluctant writers. The Publishing
section focuses on how to prepare and print digital and physical
copies of students' work. The Presenting section provides
suggestions to help students confidently present their poetry and
other written pieces. Other exciting features include Kwame Time!
videos for both teachers and students that bring Alexander into the
classroom. Kwame's Quick Tips feature easy-to-implement ideas that
have worked for Alexander. With an insightful foreword by author
Kylene Beers, teacher success stories, and the most helpful
appendix ever written, this essential resource will teach you how
to tailor writing workshop to meet the particular needs of your
students.
