An easy way to demonstrate to student what a writing conference should look like in real life is by doing a fishbowl demonstration.

A teacher and co teacher will act out how a mock writing conference will go as the students are circled around the teacher. The students write notes and as a class you would share out your ideas on what the students should be saying and how to effectively conference. The students make the goals and targets they want to aim for with the teachers guidance.

When actually fishbowl conferencing with a student, allow the option to the students that they can either have other students eavesdrop on the conferences or have their full attention.

Helps build relationships with students due to the more one on one experience

Shy students may be reluctant to talk as much

This requires the students to be paying attention and those that aren't wont get the same experience

One option you have is to break the conference that the student and teacher are having and go around the audience (the outer circles) and see what folks are thinking about the center conversation. This creates a feedback loop and gives voice to the rest of the room.

Similar to socratic discussions so you could lead students into that at a later time

Students could provide negative feedback depending on the paper or the student

Could affect the self (academic)-esteem of students with their writing.

Helps student expect what they will talk about within their own conference.

This could be really cool if you had the right students for this. In a classroom where the students are comfortable, trying this in groups would be really cool. Students already know their comfort levels with each other, so I would allow them to choose their groups naturally. If it is done naturally, someone will naturally take the lead and also students would be comfortable with sharing with their peers as well as taking constructive feedback.
