Macey's graves ch. 2, 3

Chapters 2 and 3 talk about a writer’s workshop and how it is conducted. It will be extremely helpful to me as a teacher because it gives examples of situations that might occur and what to do in these situations.
The hardest thing for me to do in my own writing is to think of a topic. For this reason, I am pretty sure that I will have a hard time helping my students who are having trouble thinking of a topic. Although I will need to practice, from reading the chapters, I at least know what I should do to help. I learned that I should be very encouraging and ask questions that allow the students to be the teacher.
I like the way the chapters broke the parts of a writer’s workshop up so that it was easy to follow. Each part of the workshop seems like it is important and very necessary for success. I look forward to learning more about the writer’s workshop and how to hold one.
