Join us for a two-day workshop exploring the research-based writing strategies from:

The Writing Rope – by Joan Sedita

What You’ll Learn:

🔹 Explicit, carefully sequenced writing instruction – from sentences to full compositions
🔹 How to embed writing into any subject area at any level
🔹 Practical strategies for sentence-level, paragraph-level, and multi-paragraph composition

Cost: $550 + GST (morning tea and lunch provided).
