About this episode
This week, Stacey explores the concept of planning and implementing a series of small group lessons to enhance students' writing skills across different genres. Drawing from her books Craft Moves and Welcome to Writing Workshop, the episode provides practical examples of teaching points that can be applied to various writing types to emphasize the importance of cross-genre application, demonstrating how skills such as establishing focus in leads and elaboration techniques can be taught and reinforced across different writing styles. Key implementation strategies, including scheduling independent practice time and maintaining flexibility in group composition, are also shared to help educators effectively implement a series of small group lessons.GO DEEPERTWTBlog PostsA Few Tips for Small Group Instruction: Expanding the Reach With Small Group WorkIdeas for planning Small Group InstructionThe Language to Develop Agency: Amping Up Agency Blog SeriesThe Power of Progression: Expanding the Reach with Small Group WorkThis is the year I’m going to keep better records.TWTPod EpisodeInviting Students to Sign Up for Small GroupsYour Small Group Instruction, Your Records*****Thanks to our affiliate, Zencastr!
