@AbigailAllmondd I think one thing we can do is provide prompts for students to follow by when giving feedback like Dean said in their writing.

Do you think conferencing about peer feedback would be helpful to students? #396FlynnS22

How do we get students excited about giving peer feedback? Could working in a group instead of one-on-one be helpful? #396FlynnS22

When using peer feedback a good tool is using prompts. The prompts should be structured yet open to feedback,and include open ended questions.Its important to not tell students to 'just read over each others work', instead give them something to follow for peer work.#396FlynnS22

In Deans writing they express the importance of teachers responses to peer feedback. It is a good idea to leave at least one good comment about where the writer took their peers advice into their assignment. #396FlynnS22

Kirby & Crovitz gives us future teachers insightful questions we can ask ourselves when responding to a student, for example: "How far has this student progressed as a writer?" The questions they provided give good outlines on how to respond to students. #396FlynnS22

@angelatranud Hi Angela! One way we can help our students experiment with different writing is assigning different types of literature and writing, like more modern pieces, so they can witness different types of writings for themselves as reference.

@shelbyudel Hey Shelby! Writing and reflecting on teaching practices seems challenging to apply for myself in my future classroom. I think it is difficult for teachers to tackle reflection on themselves because they may be so focused on students.

What kind of specific assignments can I create to learn my students backgrounds and cultures? How can I make it fun for students to talk about their backgrounds and experiences? #396FlynnS22

[Hailey Knowles @HaileyKnowles11]

Since I will be teaching all different kinds of students I will work to conect instruction to students cultural indentities so they feel included and connected with what I teach. First it is important to understand each individuals culture. #396FlynnS22

WN: Young students who struggle with writing are also not ready to meet college demands. As English teachers we need to also prepare our students for college writing levels when they move on. I hope to prepare my students for college essays, and continued learning. #396FlynnS22
