WritingFix: Genres...Narrative & Memoir | 6-Traits Resources | Scoop.it

How did this page of resources come about? The 2009-2010 school year was our Year of Narrative Writing at WritingFix and in Northern Nevada. We hosted inservice workshops for 100 lucky teacher teachers, where we gave away, read, and discussed Ralph Fletcher's How to Write Your Life Story as well as his Marshfield Dreams: When I Was a Kid. We sponsored the creation of new narrative resources, especially for grades 3-5, since our Nevada fifth graders are tested using a narrative writing prompt. Those resources ultimately became a new print guide for all Northern Nevada teachers in March of 2011. Below, you can find out how you can obtain your own copy of our "Show Me Your Story" Print Guide.

 

On this free-to-access page of resources, you will find the best-of-the-best narrative resources that were created as part of our Year of Narrative Writing.

Always Write: Purchase Materials from my Teacher Workshops

Always Write: Purchase Materials from my Teacher Workshops | 6-Traits Resources | Scoop.it

Corbett Harrison:


These are resources from my classroom and my teacher workshops that I sell here on-line to fund this little website of mine.

I started out as just a little old Northern Nevada teacher-trainer in 1996. Many years later, I am proud to say that I have now presented teacher workshops and student demonstration lessons in seventeen different states. I have also sold materials from all my trainings to all 50 of the 50 United States, as well as to Canada, Great Britain, Japan, Singapore, Hong Kong, Central America, Ireland, Australia, and New Zealand.

At my face-to-face workshops for teachers, I freely share and discuss every resource that can be found on these various pages of my website. My work with the Northern Nevada Writing Project taught me this generosity. I have been given to countless times by amazing teachers, and so I freely give back to the teachers with whom I work directly.


Dennis T OConnor's insight:

Here's the chance to support Corbett's work and get great classroom tested writing materials at a very good price.

Valuable as they are, the Standards cannot compensate for our lack of one thing: the biggest factor of them all—time. It is impossible to teach writing well without enough time. Time for students t...
Dennis T OConnor's insight:

Time is always the issue.  As a classroom teacher every lesson addressed multiple standards and objectives.  Teaching writing was also teaching reading, grammar, research, and critical thinking.
