ライティング スタッフ - 少人数グループでのライティング レッスン入門

As a special educator, I understand how to meet learners at their present level of need and how to design lessons which foster skill development as well as self confidence.
Each class will focus on a specific skill and will include time for practice as well as for sharing.
After each class is complete, I will send one optional worksheet via email which focuses on the skill of the day.  Learners are welcome to email it back to me or to share it at the next class if they would like to do so.
These lessons are designed to be stand-alone sessions, so students do not have to attend all of them to be successful, although I have built-in review lessons which will cover a broad range of subjects previously taught.  Those review lessons will cover a range of skills; however, students will not have to have attended previous classes to be successful in them.

Classes will follow the following schedule:
First, all learners will be given a chance to share their progress or a good thing that has happened since we met last.
Second, I will give an explicit lesson about the skill to be learned which will follow the I do, We do, You do format.
Third, learners will have a short time to show the class what they know through an independent activity.
Last, everyone will be given a chance to share their new knowledge with the class before we say good-bye.
