Frameworks for Classroom Time Figure 2.1: Sample Parent Permission Slip for Student Publishing Dear Parents, As part of our writing curriculum this year, we will be publishing student work in a variety of formats, including in print around school and potentially in other printed sources such as magazines, newsletters, and newspapers. At no time will we compromise your child’s privacy. When publishing, your child’s safety is our primary concern. Sincerely, Mr. Smith My son/daughter ____________________________ has permission to publish his/her work in the course of the standard writing curriculum. Parent Signature: ____________________________________ Direct Instruction and the Workshop Many teachers feel there is simply too much required instruction to allow donating the majority of each period to independent work. Discovery-based learning might take a bit longer than direct instruction and, if your time is tight, you may need to compromise. However, the workshop and direct instruction need not be mutually exclusive. We have already looked at the role of direct instruction within the workshop as mini lessons, but if necessary, you can move your classroom framework another step toward an emphasis on direct instruction by using some days for workshop and others for lectureformat teaching. http://www.books-foru.blogspot.com 37
