Program: Workshop at SJSU: Super Saturday 4-7-12 Grade Levels 8-12
Journey Toward Heritage: Creating Authentic Writing Through Student Choice Nancy Kennett leads students on a writing journey toward discovering their own heritage. She begins with students’ immigration stories and progresses on to in-depth heritage projects. Nancy's workshop will demonstrate how to use professional and student generated models to help students produce fully developed short stories, expository pieces, poetry, and presentations. Students take more control of their own writing when they are allowed choices of topics and genre. (8-12) Nancy Kennett, Piedmont Hills HS, ESUHSD
