My students' growth in writing is directly attributed to the continual conferencing they have with me or other advanced writers. While conferencing, I find various phrases starters and conferencing techniques from this book pop into my head. This book offers a framework in which to teach the writing strategies and process. This book was intended for early childhood writing, but I find the framework directly applicable to in a high school setting. I am amazed how this book has helped my under-performing,inner city,below-grade level high school scholars to reflect on their writing to produce meaningful prose. The conference transcripts are the most valuable.

I have become a Lucy Calkins fan. She has helped move my teaching of writing to another level. This book focuses on being efficient and productive in individual conferences with children - related to writing. Great resource!

All the books I ordered were delivered in the time I requested. I appreciate Amazon's promptness.
