Everyday Editing: Inviting Students to Develop Skill and Craft in Writer's Workshop Written in Jeff Anderson's characteristically witty style, this refreshing and practical guide offers an overview of his approach to editing within the writing workshop as well as ten detailed sets of lessons covering everything from apostrophes to serial commas. These lessons can be used throughout the year to replace Daily Oral Language or error-based editing strategies with a more effective method for improving student writing. in Literacy > Writing Strategieswith andersoneditingjeffpunctuation
The Craft of Grammar (DVD): Integrated Instruction in Writer's Workshop In The Craft of Grammar, Jeff Anderson shows how he brings grammar and craft together meaningfully for student writers. Jeff and his sixth-grade students move easily from analyzing sentences to freewrites in writer's notebooks to "express-lane edits" of their writing in daily workshops. The lessons, individual conferences, and small-group activities on the video demonstrate how to use high-quality children's and young adult literature as mentor texts and as an alternative to "Daily Oral Language."
