Writing Workship mini lessons

Thanks to Laura Candler's book, Empowering Readers, it inspired me to create reading mini lessons! After that I realized I needed writing mini lessons as well. Below, you will find a writing standard glossary that the students can use to refer to, mini lesson suggested sequence order, and writing mini lessons by topic. Unlike the reading mini lessons, I was not able to make these into the same format. Instead I simply copy/pasted the lessons and placed them into a document with a title. This way, they are readily available to pull anytime! Feel free to download, tweak and use in your own classroom.
