Writing Workshop for Families
Learning from Every Writer in the Room
Presented by Lorrie Tom
 Family of Writers is a unique opportunity for students and parents to write together.
During three evening meetings, Lorrie Tom guides families through writing activities that help participants discover confidence, voice, and craft while also addressing Common Core writing standards.
Students who write well are more likely to become lifelong writers. Parents will also learn positive approaches for giving writing response to their children.
Most importantly, parent and child share the rich legacy of family stories, experiencing writing as a creative, joyous, and insightful journey.
Who Should Attend: Families with 3rd through 5th Grade Students
Dates: April 8, 15, and 22
Time: 6:30 to 8 PM
Location: Point Vicente MPR
Bring: Paper and pen, or laptop/tablet
