The Writing Process Digital Writing Workshop Activity
Students often tend to rush through the writing process, throwing together a rough draft and crying out, "I'm done!"

Students will spend time working through writing workshop mini lessons and activities in a way that is manageable and meaningful. Instead of writing a lot and being DONE, students will really dig into one sentence, learning how less is more.
