Thanks, Kelly, for the link to the MiddleWeb site with the curriculum maps! I had forgotten about that one. I added it and the related Literacy Workshop site to my teacher links page (http://www.mrstg.com/teacher_links.htm). There sure are an awful lot of amazing educators out there so willing to SHARE!
If anyone has any other really good literacy sites that I should include, let me know. I'm updating my page before school begins in late August and I'd love to have a bunch of new sites to share with my committee at our first meeting. Michelle TG/IA -----Original Message----- Maggie, Those are all excellent questions and--as I feel like a newbie regarding workshop teaching--I can't answer them with authority. However, what has been helping me a lot is being able to see curriculum maps from others who are more experienced at this. At the very least they give you an idea of what people teach when and how they put certain concepts together. A set of curriculum maps that REALLY helped me can be found at _http://www.middleweb.com/ReadWrkshp/RWdownloads.html_ (http://www.middleweb.com/ReadWrkshp/RWdownloads.html) . I downloaded all of them both for reading and writing and was able to revise them to suit my unique needs (like adding required stuff from my district and deleting lessons that are not appropriate for my level).
