Participants will Understand STAAR scoring for SCRs and ECRs. Identify key elements of an effective ECR. Use visual tools, rubrics, and scaffolds to guide writing instruction. Apply sentence- and paragraph-level strategies from The Writing Revolution 2.0. Teachers will work collaboratively in hands-on activities including rubric analysis, foldable creation (make and take), exemplar writing, and exploring graphic organizers. Group discussions will support reflection and classroom application. Teachers will leave with ready-to-use tools that support differentiation and student growth. Implementation will lead to more consistent writing instruction, improved student writing, and stronger STAAR performance.
