Teacher as Writer: There Is a Writer Inside All of Us
Are you a writing teacher? Do you have an interest in honing your own writing skills?
Writing is a vulnerable act. Teachers who slip into the skin of a writer are more able to understand what they are asking their young writers to do on a daily basis.
Join us for a virtual Writing Circle session where we will build community. During our time together we will explore Teacher as Writer prompts, read the work of other writers, participate in writing ourselves, and share with our peers in the safety of a Writer’s Circle.
