- Writers often talk in order to rehearse the language and content that will go into what they write. I never really thought about this. Writing includes a lot of talk but I never really knew that.
- I learned about all the communication and networking and socialization and considerations that must come together and be utilized for good writing to occur.
- I learned that writing instruction needs to include all of the technologies that could be used as well.
2 Things I Found Interesting:
- That people can indirectly be involved in others writing and not even know it.
- That writers need to think about the physical design of the text, appropriateness and thematic content, integration of sound, etc. along with the actual writing.
1 Question I Have:
- How do you best utilize talk to assist with writng, what type of talk is the most beneficial?

Great question! Kids need help learning how to talk about writing! So the teacher can model talking about writing and give students prompts.
