Students write competently for a variety of purposes and audiences. Students communicate using standard English grammar, usage, sentence structure, punctuation, capitalization, spelling, and handwriting. The purpose of this workshop is to demonstrate multiple ways in which peer response groups can be implemented into classrooms to produce content-rich writing. Using the LEAP 21 writing rubric's focus on content and style, participants will respond to their peers' writing using both oral and written methods. Moving beyond traditional editor's checklists, participants will consider main idea, details, sequence, tone, figurative language, vocabulary, and sentence variety as they respond to the various pieces of writing.
