Why the Writing Workshop
Model?
When learners are given explicit instruction and lots of time to
write, clear goals, and powerful feedback, their writing improves.
When teachers explicitly teach the qualities, habits, and
strategies of effective writing, that writing becomes better, and
the improvement is evident within days and weeks, not just
months.
The On Demand Writing
Assessment
● Identifies the particular strengths of each writer and places them on a
learning progression for each type of writing.
● By looking ahead to the qualities of writing expected at the next level of
the learning progression, teachers can make an individual learning plan
for that student.
● Teachers can teach qualities of writing in whole-group mini-lessons, small-
group strategy sessions, or individual conferences.
● The teacher can tailor teaching to the specific, individual needs of all the
students in the class
