"What's in your Stack?" Chat #4 - Using mentor texts in conferences

“What’s in your Stack?” Chat

with Katie, Amanda & Lisa

Calling all teachers of young writers!

Are you looking for new mentor texts to teach with? 

Do you want to harness the power of “Your Stack”? 

Then join us for an hour-long informal chat, where Lisa, Amanda and Katie each share a Stack and what they would teach with it. 

If you can't join us in this time zone, we will email you a link to the recorded session within 24 hours. This will be 'live' for 14 days after the Chat. 

How does it work?

• This Chat will focus on choosing and using mentor texts during 1:1 conferences. 
• We will:
  • Share a piece of writing by a young author.
  • Name the strengths of the writer (craft, conventions and process).
  • Discuss possible teaching points ('nudges') for this writer.
  • Share a mentor text we could use for this conference. 

Who is this suited to?

• Educators working with young writers aged 3 to 10.
• Educators who have some background with Writing Workshop/Bookmaking.
