Exploring Inquiry as a Teaching Stance in the Writing Workshop

From the NCTE Inbox:

Elementary students can explore and write op-ed pieces, using the resources in the Language Arts article "Exploring Inquiry as a Teaching Stance in the Writing Workshop" (E). The article includes a "snapshot" of a fifth-grade writing workshop and its study of op-ed writing to show inquiry in action. Remember that these pieces are not limited to print publications. Local television stations and radio stations offer "talk back" options.
