Teaching Adolescent Writers
by Kelly Gallagher
Join us as we revisit a time-honored classic! Published in 2006, Kelly Gallagher’s Teaching Adolescent Writers has been a trusted resource for countless ELA teachers across the nation. You may already have a copy in your professional library! Throughout the study, we’ll discuss what has changed in 20 years, what hasn’t, and explore Gallagher’s practical approaches to writing instruction.
We welcome new participants; previous book studies are not prerequisites to join this discussion. Participation is $25, and the book is yours to purchase. CEUs are available for an additional $20 processing fee.
Participants will need to respond to each weekly post and reply to another person’s comment to be eligible for CEUs (requested 2.5).
