Writing from Multiple Sources - Chicago Area Writing Project
Event Information
Event description
A workshop for teachers (Gr. 4+) teaching non-fiction writing which requires different composition skills and multiple sources of content.
About this event
Fiction and non-fiction genres look different and are written for different purposes and audiences.
- How can teachers can show their students how to identify important information in multiple texts or media sources?
- How can information from multiple sources be collected and organized?
- What are some easy writing activities in which students compose an original piece using the information they have researched including their own analyses?
We've invited a representative from NewsGuard.com to spend part of the morning with us to share a great tool that helps identify reliable and trustworthy online news websites. This workshop is a great follow up for anyone who attended our June 1 program with Sarah Brandt from NewsGuard.com.
