Inservice from WTWP, the writing people

If your school improvement plan calls for more and better writing, call on WTWP to assist by developing programs of inservice that focus on writing in the content areas.

 

If reading is a priority in your school, WTWP Teacher Consultants can demonstrate how they incorporate more reading choices in the curriculum and how students participate in literature circles, an approach to reading that leads to greater comprehension, enjoyment of reading, wider reading, and critical thinking.   

 

Writing assessments? Teacher Consultants of WTWP have served on the Writing Assessment Committee meeting in Nashville each spring, helping set anchor papers. WTWP Teacher Consultants can demonstrate how they assist their students in preparing for the testing environment.

 

Gateway standards? Teacher Consultants of WTWP use innovative classroom approaches consistent with standards and performance indicators.

If more and better writing is important to you and your school, contact the West Tennessee Writing Project to provide programs to meet specific needs of your faculty and school.
