The object of this blog is to use texts as Mentors in writing lessons for students learning the craft of writing. Students will learn how to write like great authors by studying great authors. In this blog, I plan on displaying lessons for students in the middle school grades (6-8).
The object of this blog is to focus on authors as "mentors" of study for teachers to use in their current/future classrooms. This blog will apply in a practical manner and explore the ways in which teachers can use the works of authors to demonstrate for the students the traits and processes of writing. This information gives students an idea of what is expected of them as authors.Lessons for students in the middle school grades (6-8)will be displayed on this blog site.
“With a room full of authors to help us teach, teaching writing doesn’t have to be so lonely.” -Katie Wood Ray
" I can't help students write well by myself. I need lots of help doing this teaching work. I have found that help on the shelves of my library." -Wondrous Words, Katie Wood Ray
