NECESSARY FOUNDATIONS FOR THE WRITING WORKSHOP
“Writers do not write with words and conventions alone; writers write above all with meaning. Children will invest themselves more in their writing if they are allowed- indeed, if they are taught- to select their own topics and to write about subjects that are important to them.”
~Lucy Calkins- A Guide to Writing Workshop Grades 3-5
