Learn writing techniques that allow students to personalize texts and confidently grow their writing abilities. Help students “graft” their own creative, original ideas to texts, in such a way that personalizes and gives them ownership of the story. Lead them to confidently and freely write better in the target language. (Note: the "More than Timed Writings" session tomorrow (Friday) at 10:30am is very simliar. The information is the same, but it will exclude some of the more interactive elements in this "Grafted Writing" presentation.)
