About the Book

Are your teachers are frustrated by their students' writing? Are students disengaged from writing? Is pressure mounting to improve writers' performance? Starting with What Students Do Best can help. On this professional development DVD, Katherine Bomer models a way to respond to students' writing that motivates student writers, helps them improve, and turns frustrated teachers around. "I think the reason we feel frustrated when we read student writing is precisely because we're looking for what is wrong, what is missing. We read with negative eyes, and when we look through that "correctness" lens we'll always, always find errors, no matter what." -Katherine Bomer Your teachers will see Katherine at work with students she has never met, many of whom struggle with writing. They'll see the power of her focused, specific compliments reflected in these students' facial expressions, posture, and language of writers. They'll learn how to lead kids to become better, more sophisticated writers, and along the way discover a more satisfying professional life.

About the Author :
Heinemann congratulates Katherine Bomer for receiving the 2017 Outstanding Elementary Educator Award by NCTE. Katherine Bomer, author of The Journey Is Everything, Hidden Gems, and Starting with What Students Do Best, is one of the field's most gifted writers as well as one of its most gifted teachers of writing. In more than two decades of teaching and consulting, she has used her writers' eye to focus on how craft isn't just an instructional goal but an instructional tool that allows writers to grow well beyond the range of most publicly available assessments. An internationally-known consultant and frequent keynote speaker, Katherine began her consulting career with the Teachers College Reading and Writing Project. In addition to Writing a Life, she is the coauthor of the Heinemann title For a Better World (with Randy Bomer) and delivers on-site PD through Heinemann Professional Development Services. A published poet and essayist, Katherine is also coauthor (with Lucy Calkins) of A Writer's Shelf. She began over fifteen years ago as a professional developer with the Teachers College Reading and Writing Project. A classroom teacher for ten years, she now works with teachers in elementary and middle schools throughout the country. As a frequent speaker at conferences and institutes, she combines a teacher's practical advice, a writer's love of language, and a powerful plea for social justice.
