Additional Book Details
In an increasingly demanding world of literacy, it has become critical that students know how to write effectively. From the requirements of standardized tests to those of the wired workplace, the ability to write well, once a luxury, has become a necessity. Many students are leaving school without the necessary writing practice and skills needed to compete in a complex and fast-moving Information Age. Unless we teach them how to run with it, they are in danger of being run over by a stampede—a literacy stampede.InTeaching Adolescent Writers, Kelly Gallagher shows how students can be taught to write effectively. Gallagher shares a number of classroom-tested strategies that enable teachers to:Understand the importance of teaching writing and how to motivate young writersShow how modeling from both the teacher and real-world texts builds young writersProvide choice of what to write, which helps elevate adolescent writing, and how to fit it into a rigorous curriculumHelp students recognize the importance of purpose and audienceAssess essays in ways that drive better writing performance.Infused with humor and illuminating anecdotes, Gallagher draws on his classroom experiences and work as co-director of a regional writing project to offer teachers both practical ways to incorporate writing instruction into their day and compelling reasons to do so.
