Share how you use "Live Writing" or "Show, Don't Tell" here
Our Mentor Text of the Year Program is back for its fourth year. Last year, we focused on writer's notebooks, and this year we'll be focusing on showing writing.
Starting in September 2011, teachers from around the globe who are participating in this annual network will begin exchanging lessons, mentor texts, student samples, and classroom ideas.
If you already have used Live Writing by Ralph Fletcher or Show, Don't Tell by Josephine Nobisso, feel free to begin sharing below!
