Are you interested in strengthening students’ writing and thinking across content areas? Are you interested in collaborating with colleagues to earn 10 PDPs?
The Writing Revolution 2.0 by Judith C. Hochman and Natalie Wexler provides practical strategies for explicitly teaching writing skills while simultaneously deepening students’ content knowledge, comprehension, and analytical thinking. In this book club, we’ll learn about the Hochman Method, discuss ideas from the book, and explore how we can apply these strategies in our own classrooms. Ideally, we will try out some of the strategies together and come back with reflections and student outcomes based on what we have tried.
This Book Club will run from October through February. Participants should expect to attend one or two 60 minute meetings per month. This opportunity is open to ALL members of the MRSD staff/faculty, and all particpants will earn 10PDPs upon completion.
