Workshop 5 re-examines the writing process movement, for just as writing is open to revisions so is the process of teaching writing. It begins with a candid interview with Donald Graves in which he explores changes in his own thinking and the roots of his theories. In the chapters that follow, teachers provide personal accounts detailing extensions of the teaching model Graves put forward a decade ago.
