Writer's Workshop

 Writer's Workshop is a time when students are writing about their lives.  Each workshop time begins with a mini-lesson and then the students go off to write.  This week we are learning what revision means.   Too often we think it means to write it again - we learned that it actually means to make your writing better by adding more details.  Here the students are conferencing with each other to determine if more details are needed.  Rule number one in revision:  Read your writing out loud.
