IMPORTANT: This opportunity is specific only to 3rd-5th grade writing instruction.
Self-Regulated Strategy Development (SRSD) is an evidence-based pedagogy. It teaches students how to use the writing process and equips them with the necessary skills and strategies to become self-regulated, successful writers. Through carefully analyzing peer-written exemplars and published mentor texts, SRSD exposes learners to the features of effective writing at the outset and all through the year. Explicit instruction prepares students to incorporate these features into their own pieces. They learn key strategies and solidify their skills through: collaborative writes, self/peer feedback and embedded deliberate practice. To facilitate a gradual release, teachers model writing, offer scaffolds and support ongoing goal setting. The end result? Confident, joyful and effective writers.
