This blog is for teachers who are participating in a Writer's Workshop Institute through ESC Region 12. We will come together 5 times throughout the school year and when we are not together this BLOG will help us with our collaboration as teachers as well as our growth as writers!

Welcome to the Third Writer's Workshop Institute
I want to welcome you and tell you just how EXCITED I am for you to be a part of our Third Writer's Workshop Institute here at ESC Region 12. Writer's Workshop Institute is powerful and it can be transforming for your classroom writing instruction if you choose to let it! Becoming a teacher of writers is a journey... and with Writer's Workshop Institute you are surrounded by others on the same path. I challenge you to be willing to "not know" where you are going, but to forge ahead anyway. I will hold your compass, I will be your guide. It is my honor to be your teacher! Lace up your hiking boots... here we go!

Since I was the first to sign up this year, I feel it is fitting for me to also be the first to post a comment!
