Youth Scribes: Teaching a Love of Writing Now

9780325160153

Students just want to write if they are invited and permitted to do so—by and with their teacher in conversation. In Youth Scribes: Teaching a Love of Writing Now, teachers are guided to see students as scribes with diverse abilities, backgrounds, and interests, and then dialogue with adolescents to build their scribal identities and move them toward the process of writing as invitation to create, become, and belong.
