-Writing and reading develop together and inform each other
-Was not intended to be structured

-Young writers are "Symbol weavers"
-Purpose of writing is to communicate
-Taking pictures for picture dictionary written by the students
-Kids made books documenting what they hear when they go to bed at night to be culturally responsive
-Going on walks around school or community and then free writing about that experience
-Think pair shares before writing
-Written conversations
-Rollercoaster model of dual-language teaching? Never heard of this!
-Six-Room Image Writing
-No matter what happens, writing workshop time is sacred
-Our own writing processes are as unique as we are
-Allow them to write in any language
-Writer's Workshop: Minilesson, independent writing, sharing
-"Minilessons are invitations, not mandates"
-"Start with minilessons about community and classroom procedures"
-Use what kids are doing each day to document progress towards proficiency in meeting standards
-Focus on content, understanding, and learning, not on correction during writing conferences
-Instead of rewriting, have students cut and paste onto a new piece of paper
-"It will be ___grade perfect"
