In this session, we will look at strategies for incorporating writing in math class. We will look at vocabulary, graphic organizers, visual models, writing to learn, and writing to demonstrate learning all in the midst of "doing" math. // || __**Grades K-2**__ || Audience: K-5 Presenter: Nicole Medina // Synopsis: How **do** children learn to write well? Creating capacity in students about the process of writing takes the pressure from the teacher and creates a classroom of colleagues.
