Kindergarten Writers Workshop Curriculum Calendar
This is a sample curriculum calendar for a K-1 writers workshop block. It includes time frames, unit of study titles, and teaching points for each unit. Please note, I taught this curriculum in kindergarten. Therefore, it was originally labeled as "kindergarten." However, it is suitable for both kinder and first grades. (The only change for first grade that I would suggest is to use different topics for the conventions studies to fit your students' needs.)

AP Language and Composition Audited Syllabus
This syllabus is my own, drafted for audit in 2007. While some of my day-to-day activities have changed, my basic course architecture has not. I use The Bedford Reader (9th Ed.) in the fall and partway through the spring, and then as we prepare for the exam we start reading a trio of titles "located" in present-day Congo: King Leopold's Ghost by Adam Hochschild, Heart of Darkness by Joseph Conrad, and The Poisonwood Bible by Barbara Kingsolver.

Teaching College Freshmen to Write: A New Method
This short essay describes how I moved from deep frustration in teaching freshman comp at the Berklee College of Music to real satisfaction and great student improvement. When I taught Freshman Comp the standard way, using the standard textbooks and making grammar notes in the margins of student papers, I became exhausted and students learned little. While at Berklee, through insight and accident, I stumbled on a novel way to teach college writing. This is a "readable writing" method based on t
