Each February the Illinois State Writing Project and the Illinois Association of Teachers of English invites Writing Project participants to return for an exciting opportunity for renewal and study; often the demonstrations for this day come from the Saturday workshops where attendants have been developing their own demos around a theme on which the workshops are based: the teaching of language, the teaching of rhetoric, and the teaching of writing with technology. Demonstrations cover a variety of writing skills and writing process lessons that are classroom-ready. These fresh ideas are based on proven, research and practice. Participants enjoy discussion and application of lessons to rejuvenate their writing curriculum. CPDUs are available.
