Program Summary/Abstract Description

This presentation showcases how to implement a daily 1-hour Writer’s Workshop integrating reading and writing in a K-2 dual language/immersion (DL/I) setting.  Second language writers have a more limited ability to express original ideas during the writing process, and it is crucial to expose them to different opportunities to write in order to improve their writing and promote second language acquisition.  Find out how to incorporate the writing process in a unique way that benefits DL/I students.
