• Talking About Writing (DVD): (Grades 3-5)
  Ralph Fletcher and JoAnn Portalupi write, "Writing conferences can be difficult to manage, and it's tempting to omit them from the workshop, but these one-to-one interactions are crucial. Writers need response, not only from their peers but from us as well." In this two-part series we revisit (See When Students Write by the same authors) Bailey's Elementary school on the outskirts of Washington, DC, to watch and listen as accomplished teachers confer with students about their writing.

• Talking, Drawing, Writing: Lessons for Our Youngest Writers
  In the early grades, talking and drawing can provide children with a natural pathway to writing, yet these components are often overlooked. In Talking, Drawing, Writing: Lessons for Our Youngest Writers Martha Horn and Mary Ellen Giacobbe invite readers to join them in classrooms where they listen, watch, and talk with children, then use what they learn to create lessons designed to meet children where they are and lead them into the world of writing. Many of the strategies are very appropriate for ELLs in older grades.
