Examples of teacher writing didn’t work / Adam




In an attempt to engage her students in writing, Adam tried bringing her own experience in personal writing into the classroom – with no success.

“I tried to conjure up some samples of my own personal writing. I shared these with my classes, but the samples didn’t solve my problem. Students pointed out that I was older, and of course writing was easier for me” (p. 30).
