Summary
Description
Stacey Shubitz and Lynne Dorfman warmly welcome you to experience
writing workshop for the first time or in a new light with Welcome to
Writing Workshop. Through strategic routines, tips, resources, and short
focused video clips, teachers can create the sights and sounds of a
thriving writing workshop where:
• both students and teachers are working authors
• students spend most of their time writing—not just learning about it
• student choice is encouraged to help create engaged writers, not compliant ones
• students are part of the formative assessment process
• students will look forward to writing time—not dread it.
From explanations of writing process and writing traits to small-group
strategy lessons and minilessons, this book will provide the know-how
to feel confident and comfortable in the teaching of writers.

It’s a great book for elementary teachers. Writer’s workshops help develop children’s writing abilities. I’m excited to try it out in my future classroom.
The structure makes sense and it is easy to read. The text very clear and focused on the main idea.
It’s not a perfect book. Writer’s workshops are great to implement, but they don’t have to be the only type of Language Arts instructional tool you use.
