HI,This is just an idea but - maybe you could have Monday as your mini lesson 
day - this will not take the whole time of course so they can try it in a short 
chunk -sometimes I give students a index card (4x6) to get them used to writing 
a practice chunk and share. Then the next day you could do a quick review and 
students could begin their writing. Day 3 could keep them writing or starting 
something new?? I guess it depends on the age of you students.Not sure if this 
helps, I am not sure what an expert would say about this, but if you only have 
30 minutes you have to be flexible. I have the same issues at my school...Good 
Luck!
