All students at KDES and MSSD use a writers' workshop process to help improve their writing. Let's take a look at a typical workshop as an in-depth example.
Every student writes for at least one hour every day during our writers' workshop.
During the workshop, the students write about topics that are especially interesting to them. We encourage them to write stories about people, places or things that are of personal importance to them. For example, Elijah wrote about his favorite cat. Sean wrote about his grandfather who died. Rachel wrote about playing in the park.
