| Abstract: |
In the article "No Need to Reinvent the Wheel: Reading Instruction in a Time of Change" published in "English in Texas" in 2017, the authors, Ann D. David and Katrina Jansky, viewed reading instruction through five touchstones: time, choice, relevance, talk, and routines and rituals. This article expands on those touchstones by examining writing instruction, offering classroom practices that can support a diverse range of student writers and bring back joy and pleasure to the writing classroom. |
