Back to EpisodesThe Truth About Real Writers (And What It Means for Your ELA Class) Ep 2
Description
In this episode of Beyond the Paragraph, I’m pulling back the curtain on what real writers do and how we can finally start teaching like that. As a middle school ELA teacher and children’s book author with Disney, HarperCollins, and Houghton Mifflin, I’ve lived both worlds.
You’ll learn:
- What real authors actually do (and what we don’t)
- 4 things writers do that students should too
- A simple shift you can make this week to transform your writing block
Whether you teach in a classroom or around a kitchen table, this episode will help you ditch the rigid checklists and start teaching writing that actually works.
