Writing Workshop

Writing Workshop is an essential component of Pathways 2.0, providing instruction and time for learners to write in meaningful ways. The block of time for Writing Workshop consists of whole-group instruction, small-group instruction and independent writing. Because of this gradual release of responsibility, learners become proficient at writing and are able to transfer skills to other disciplines.

The Writing Workshop block is designed to provide learners with opportunity to write daily for extended periods of time, to become a community of writers who give and receive feedback, and to assume ownership of writing.
