3. Developing Communication Skills Through Writing Workshop

# data[].attributes.body
1. Reading

During a writing workshop students first hear their teacher share a read-aloud.  By listening to a story, read out loud, students are able to learn things such as tone and finding the "voice" of the writer.  Their teacher will model for them the appropriate way to hold and turn the pages of a book as well as read from left to right.  Students' will also have the opportunity to further develop their reading skills during the writing-time component of a writers workshop.  During this component, students will have to read over their work and possibly the work of others while going through the revising and editing process.  Students will also develop reading skills when they read their work to the class during the sharing component of writers workshop.

2. Speaking

Many of a students' speaking skills will be sharpened during the sharing portion of writers workshop.  Students' will have the opportunity to speak with others as well as hear others speak to them.  They will learn "code-switching" techniques, as they will go from speaking to their peers, to conferencing one-on-one with the teacher.

3. Listening

Much of a writers workshop will deal with listening.  Not only will students listen during a read-aloud, but they will listen during the mini-lesson as well as the sharing component of the writers workshop.  During sharing, students will learn how to listen to their peers and offer feedback based off of what they heard.  Students' listening skills will be tested during conferencing times also, as here they will be expected to listen to any advice or critique they are given, and apply it to their work.  Listening will be essential during the mini-lesson component because this is when students will learn a specific writing skill or strategy, and then apply it to their own writing.

4. Writing

Writing skills will be developed in various ways during a writers workshop.  During the read-aloud, students' will be introduced to different authors, that they can begin to use as mentors in their own writing style.  Students will learn multiple writing skills and strategies during teacher-led mini lessons, that they can then apply in their own writing during the writing time component of writers workshop.  During sharing, students' will have the opportunity to further develop their writing skills by seeing the various ways their peers chose to write their own pieces.

5. Viewing

Students will develop viewing skills by watching the mini-lessons given by the teacher.  They will view the teacher modeling these skills and be able to apply them to their own work.  During sharing time, they will have the opportunity to view the work of others, which will often helps students' with their own writing as well.

6. Visually Representing

While students engage in the "writing time" component of the writers workshop, they will further develop their ability to visually represent whatever they are writing about.  They will learn to use very descriptive words and sentences to vividly describe a time or place they are talking about through their writing.  During the "read aloud" component, students are given the opportunity to learn the various ways authors visually represent their work and then apply those ideas to their own writing.  Students will also have the chance to develop this skill during the "sharing" component, where they will be able to listen to their peers work and attempt to envision what they are speaking about.  They then have the option to pull some ideas from their peers visual representation and put it to use in their writing.

A writing workshop enables the teacher to support a range of students because it gives the students an opportunity to write freely. The students can write on their own time and at their own ability. For an ELL student, the student could incorporate their first language into their writing. For struggling student or students with special needs, the writing workshop gives them time to work with the teacher and get individualized help.

The room will be set up so that the students work at tables, in groups. This will lead to great conversations between students when writing. Also it will help students collaborate and reviews each others work. There is also a meeting table for students to have one on one time with the teacher. Additionally, there is a carpet with bookshelves surrounding it, for students to create ideas for their writing.
