This goes with the planning and set up of the writing and reading workshop. During the beginning weeks you instruct the students on what readers' and writers' workshop will look like. Everyone being respectful of the others and working very quietly- You may want to grab a copy of Lucy Calkins Writing Workshop and review the Implementing phase. She goes over it very thoroughly what it should like and sound like and how to get your students there.

How do you make sure students continue working when you conference with individuals about their work? Other teachers have reported (and I have noticed in my own experiences) that when the teacher works with one student, the other students think they can take that time to socialize. In a short time, no one is working, and everyone is just visiting. I need some exact words that will work with middle school students. Thanks!
