Thanks so much for sharing your experience and wisdom. There is far too little actual hands on PD for individual teachers, and your principles are incredibly helpful!

I like the idea of starting with Fables. Are there any you recommend for mentor texts to use with students?

God bless you! This is a blessing for students

I would love access to your spinner - I want to try it in grade 9!.

Thank you so much

Very helpful! Thanks for sharing.

Please do that video on classkick…..would be very interested!

Can you add this doc somewhere to download?

I would love a link to your "writing support website". Please and thank you!

I’d love to get started with thiS program.

Hi im in 7th grade and Im in LA 2 accerlated. On the quizzes, I get a 60-80%, do you have any tips that can help me get 100% on quizzes?

Do you have a video on class kick?

These are great! How do I get your slides?

Do you create the agenda slides?

Oh and may I please have the link to your website for student resources. Thank you!

Hi! What should I do if I don't have any student examples to deconstruct? This is my first year teaching writing.

Hello, I really appreciate your program and I am so excited to use it this year. I cannot find part 4 and 5 of the Writing Intervention series. Can you help me find it? Thank you so much!

WOW! May I please have access to your website. I teach 6th grade. Thanks!

How much time for the question of the day discussion? Is it a partner discuss or group discussion?

Hello, I am a novel teacher and having these ready to go materials would help a lot. Are they available?

hi

How do you teach finding your voice?

🙈 *PromoSM*

This makes so much sense. Thank you for the reminder. :)

This def makes me feel better

Great strategies! I am looking forward to implementing many of the suggestions to revamp my argumentative units. Thank you for sharing!

hiiiiiiiiiiiiyeee (you can also find me through this, its me tillerz)

What is an example of the warm up using complex sentences (that, for them to continue, needs to be perfect)? Thanks

You seem to have missed SRSD. It has literally decades of research and a robust evidence base in terms of how to approach the writing process, which includes the elements you bring up here and then some. No need to make a new program really. I was actually talking to one of the researchers involved with this and they pointed out that sentence combining actually has pretty limited research support, which was surprising to me - but something to look deeper into.

Oh my gosh! I would love access to your spinner. I have so many reluctant writers and would love to try this out!

May I have access to your six grade website? I’m currently homeschooling my 7th grader and your videos are extremely helpful. Thanks for all your hard work.

Very interesting. I’m a homeschool parent and am trying to learn as much information as I can on how to teach writing. I have quickly realized that there is little research to back up the information I find, as you have mentioned. Thank you for sharing all your knowledge and understanding on the topic.

Your videos are so helpful! I teach 4th grade and have learned so much from you. Keep making amazing content 🫶🏼

As a special ed teacher, the x factor in any sort of research is how the learning style interacts with different groups of students. Some truly enjoy and take to a more intuitive approach to learning writing and others don't. I agree though, a mix of both is best.

How do you feel about Dr. Montessori theory about writing before reading?

This is really helpful.. thank you!

The Writing Revolution

All research has shown we need direct and explicit instruction in Literacy.

Good! I hated the fact that most of my teachers didn't put in the effort to make things a bit different, so every year we would have to answer the same questions ("What did I do this summer?" is the most common)

Do you have any resources on teaching students how to write a Research Paper?

I am so glad you mentioned sentence combining. I found this research when I was working on my dissertation and now teach teachers to it.

Hi Robin, I'm enjoying your videos! You mention in this video that you do Writer's Workshop twice a week. What do you do on the other days of the week? Also, most ELA teachers teach reading in addition to writing. How do you suggest layering reading instruction with writing instruction?
