Product Description
What's the best way to support our youngest writers in K-3 classrooms? In this breakthrough book, internationally respected literacy researchers Gay Pinnell and Pat Scharer introduce us to community writing, which centers on the relationship between group writing such as shared and interactive writing and children's own independent writing development. At the heart of community writing is rich talk about all aspects of the writing process as well as several other key essentials the book shows you how to develop: How to help your young writers own their topics; children write best when their writing is based on authentic topics of their choice-ideas, stories, and events that are real for them. How to use quality children's literature to support your teaching; the authors demonstrate the importance of reading quality books to children in ways that invite children's thoughts, questions, and observations before, during, and after the reading. Conversations about books help children learn about the writer's craft. How to teach writing all day long -beyond the writer's workshop; children learn about writing in a range of instructional contexts each day. \n\n288 pages 8-1/2" x 11"\nGrades K3

5 out of 5 stars Good Ideas   September 7, 2008
 1 out of 2 found this review helpful

There is so many curriculums out there but no one really explains why you should put into practice certain elements. This book provides an understanding of what are good teaching practices in writing and why. It is practical and I am using it to enrich my professional knowledge on teaching writing to second graders. I highly recommend it!
