Building Resilient Writers

Writing may just be the experience that requires the most resilience in schools. After all, writing exposes vulnerabilities, but through that students find their voice and power. When students show up again and again, despite feeling vulnerable, writing skills will develop. Learn new ways to support resilient writers in all grades with author Patty McGee, M.Ed.

This research-based webinar will enable educators to combine key types of instructional strands, practice sessions, and levels of support to help students write more and, in turn, become stronger writers.
