Teaching Writing in Kindergarten: A Structured Approach to Daily Writing That Helps Every Child Become a Confident, Capable Writer
Randee Bergen's 17 years in the classroom have included teaching each grade, K through 6, as well as special education. Her experiences shaping writing instruction for older students and struggling learners and teaching her two daughters to write resulted in this novel and effective approach to developing a strong writing foundation for kindergarten students. Bergen has written articles on teaching students with learning disabilities and on reading and writing instruction for LD Forum and Connect, and contributed research findings to the Colorado State Department of Education's classroom research report. She currently teaches kindergarten in Grand Junction, Colorado.
