In this workshop, Louise and Sheena will explore how the sub-elements of writing (grammar and punctuation) can be taught using explicit and engaging mini-lessons. They will then review the writing lesson, and identify how these skills can be transferred into writing.
Mini-lesson ideas and writing lessons will be shared from The Poetry Book.
