The Northwest Inland Writing Project is kicking off their Spring Conference today and will feature keynote speaker Jeff Anderson, author of 10 Things Every Writer Should Know.
According
to the NIWP website, "The last time Jeff Anderson came to Spokane, our
brains surged with fresh lesson ideas to enliven writing through
increased grammatical awareness. In our classrooms, the g-word became a
call to creativity. Our students took word journeys that had them
showing off their latest typed creations. This Write Guy has the right
ties between language usage and writing spelled out with directness and
simplicity. He zooms in on what students need most. [...] His uncommon
insights will help us surge toward the Common Core State Standards."
