Mechanically Inclined by Jeff Anderson
I can't believe this book has been sitting on the shelf behind my desk for at least five years. A few years ago, I had to leave behind most of my writing workshop-style lessons. Not because they didn't work, quite the contrary, but because we had adopted a curriculum which was much more locked into place. The reigns have loosened in the past couple of years, and I am eager to bring Writing Workshop back and add Mechanically Inclined to the mix.
For my response to this text, I decided to outline my first semester for Accelerated English 10. I wanted to visualize exactly how I would include a Writer's Notebook and integrate its use with the literature and mechanics I am required to cover first semester. I am very pleased with how the semester comes together around the writer's notebook, but I am aware of how much I am trying to pack in. Regardless, I am eager to give this my best shot and see what kinds of results I get at the end of the semester.
