Creating a toolkit by Kristen Smith
Day 1- TCRWP
**Bonus**
Ways to organize it:- A notebook -transportable but limiting to growth
- A folder
- A binder - can grow -add sheet protectors
- Notecards -can use for mini-charts -front: teaching point, back: mentor text (add author and title)
- Digital notebook (Penultimate app) -can create books for each genre, add pictures of charts and annotate
Which works best for you?
Structure:
- Writing Process
Collect/GenerateRehearsal/Developing
Drafting
Revision
Editing
Publishing
Celebration
- Writing Skills
If...then...
Structure, Development, Language and conventions
- Combination of process and skills
My plan:
Digital portfolio
What materials will you include in your toolkit?
- Checklists (various grade level rubrics, vocabulary bookmark, editing checklist)
- Mentor texts (excerpts for different grade levels, Connect chart to Mentor text (Excerpt, entire story/book- marked by structure, elaboration and language conventions, color coded in mentor text, Mirror writing-taking student writing to demonstrate the teaching point, show them what they're doing and then show them how that piece could be elevated)
- Mini-charts (Many charts are on the Units of Study CD already, Use the checklist language to create you own charts and you can include Mentor excerpts if you like)
- Conferring sheets
Work on your own:
Make a mini-chart, Fireflies
