Jennifer Serravallo's Teaching Writing in Small Groups details essential practices for optimising groups that help you:First, Teaching Writing in Small Groups lays the foundation for success. Jen shows how to create groups for maximum effectiveness and how to make what you teach responsive, clear, and sticky. Then she streamlines differentiated instruction with a menu of small-group options for providing just-right support:

- develop relationships with your writers
- teach with efficiency
- increase student engagement
- improve independence
- develop social support amongst students
