Features of the HVWP
- Professional Development Programs for
Teachers
Free Saturday Seminars provide
Hudson Valley educators with hands-on, teacher-led demonstrations of effective
strategies for teaching writing and improving literacy instruction. Conferences
and writing retreats give teachers opportunities to meet leaders in the field,
reflect on their teaching practices, and develop their own writing.
- Professional Development Provider
to Schools and Districts
HVWP consults with school and district leaders to develop and provide inservice
programs that are relevant to local needs. Inquiries about professional
development should be directed to Jacqueline
Denu.
- An Invitational Summer
Institute
The HVWP Summer Institute is designed especially for
exemplary teachers of writing--K-16 and from all disciplines--to present and
discuss their own teaching practices, examine and critique current research,
and engage in professional and personal writing. Inquiries about the program
should be directed to Tom Meyer.
- Summer Workshops are open to teachers of all grade levels
and disciplines who want to incorporate successful writing practices into their
classrooms.
- HVWP is one of 195 National Writing
Project sites across the country. Welcome to a professional
development site for teachers who are learners, networking locally and
nationally!
