Hey--don't know if this is still up and going, but I thought I'd post just the same. Last Saturday I had the opportunity to attend the Central Utah Writing Project's Saturday Workshop with Tom Romano. If the name sounds familiar it's because Loraine Wallace quoted him extensively in Methods 1 & 3. Think back to her ideas on multi-genre projects--it's Romano's brainchild.
It was a a hands on, or should I say, pencil to paper workshop. Not only did he teach us about student writing, we wrote ourselves! We moved through a possible writing unit's assignments ourselves to get s feel for what to teach. It was super!
So here is a plug for the Central Utah Writing Project. Go to their WEBSITE and check it out. I highly recommend the classes they offer. Plus it gets us together, writing and sharing.
