WRITING YOUR WAY IN
A Workshop for Secondary School Teachers
November 7
Delbarton School, Morristown, NJ
Do you love to write but need a leg-up to the next level? Shy away from writing instruction because you lack confidence? Integrate creative and critical writing in your courses but wish you could offer more substance to your curriculum? This workshop will open doors for you as a writer and provide practical tools to help your students shape thoughts into words. Come learn how the writing process can be a way in to learning, investigation, and creative expression. This workshop is for any teacher, any subject area, any level of experience.

“Attending Christine’s workshop is like taking a ride in the Florida Everglades on a hovercraft—moss flying past, alligators surfacing and then receding; sounds from unseen birds—a world I’d be afraid to visit with anyone but Christine, a truly savvy guide.” Participant, University of Iowa Summer Writing Festival.
