Testimonials
It drew on different research and pulled it together for us AND that it was practical. Our learning will enhance our teaching of writing right away, meaning high student outcomes. It was relevant to all ages and the facilitators were top notch, teaching how we should be teaching."
I went in with so many questions and feeling like I wasn't sure how to teach writing using the new curriculum. I came away feeling confident with the workshop and resources knowing exactly how to plan and teach writing and share it with my colleagues."
The practicality of the strategies were great. All of the learning reaffirmed the things I had already been doing in my classroom and was a much-needed boost."
