RRVWP Summer Institute: Many Stories
The Red River Valley Writing Project's Summer Institute offers participants a place to learn, share, and grow--as writers and as teachers of writing. Outstanding local teachers share best teaching practices through hands-on teaching demonstrations, book discussions, and writing groups. Readings, writings, and teaching demos will cover best practices for teaching narrative writing, analyzing stories, and using stories to improve equity in writing instruction.
Teachers can earn 3 credit hours and receive a $500 stipend by participating in professional development for 45 hours (over 9 days) on June 11, June 20-23, and June 27-30.
Space is limited to 7 participants. Applications due Saturday, April 30th. Notification of acceptance by Sunday, May 8th.
The institute will be led by RRVWP co-directors Angela Hase and Benjamin Melby.
