Creative Writer’s Workshop



63144400Writing for the Common Core: Elementary School WorkshopAudra Fleeman (8th/Horizons/LMS), Christine Stroer (3rd/DCES), and Ali Gotz (Former Horizons/DCES)“My daughter is enjoying the workshop. Her quick response on distinguishing the learning in this camp was, "It was fun and I?loved it.” In asking more details, I think she liked it?for spending more individual?face time with the teacher. And of course, the neighbor-hood marathon was a thrill!”Mrs. RWe are pleased to offer our fifth year of our summer writing workshop. With the introduction of the Common Core Georgia Performance Standards (CCGPS), we have modified our workshop to focus on responding to text while using evidence to support the writing. Our workshop is designed to expose your child to a variety of writing strategies and formats. The goal is not to produce a finished product; instead, we focus on specific strategies students should use to expand and organize ideas and increase style. Students will experience writing in an environment that provides immediate and directed feedback allowing for growth and success. As part of the workshop, each student will receive an invaluable resource that will prove useful throughout their coming years of school. More important, perhaps, is that shortly after camp, your child will put in practice the skills and tools learned while feeling more confident in his or her writing knowledge and ability!
