Our first live webinar session with Colleen Cruz was packed with thinking about a mindset for teaching writing, strategies to guide repetitive student writing, mirror writing, and more!
In this clip below, you'll hear Colleen give advice for helping students move past the same old writing and launch an exercise with webinar participants as they dig in to student writing to problem solve together.
Our webinar sessions are archived so consider joining us in progress for the rest of Colleen's series! The next live session is Wednesday, October 25 at 6:00 pm.
