Teachers
Teachers of all grade levels, of any subject, and with any level of experience who have an interest in and commitment to advancing writing and the teaching of writing are encouraged to attend our summer institute. This intensive week-long program features workshops and discussion, as well as time for participants to do their own writing and research.
After completing the summer institute, we invite participants' continued involvement in WNYWP, through participation in writing/inquiry groups, mini retreats/workshops, and participation in future summer institutes as teacher-leaders.
Schools
The Western New York Writing Project can provide professional development related to the teaching of writing for schools, departments, and small groups of teachers. Contact us to tell us more about your specific needs and discuss our offerings and options: wnywriting@gmail.com
