<p>Timely and accessible, this book offers tangible strategies that will help teachers plan and sustain writing workshop experiences that are responsive to the needs of their specific students.

Organized in three parts, this book reframes common narratives about resistant writers, empowers teachers to design, lead and refine their workshop, and provides a toolkit to do so. The appendices and eResources included provide teachers with instructions for mini-lessons and learning targets that support multimodal composition, perfect for pre-service and in-service teachers.</p> <p>Introduction: The Rise of the Resistant Writer</p><p>Part 1: Disrupting the Stories We Tell Ourselves About Reluctant and Resistant Writers</p><p>Chapter 1: Our Past Is Present</p><p>Chapter 2: Decentering Ourselves</p><p>Chapter 3: Fortifying Writers in a Nutritive Writing Workshop</p><p>Part 2: A Framework for Centering Writers in Our Classrooms and Workshops</p><p>Chapter 4: Practicing and Coaching Self-Awareness</p><p>Chapter 5: Building and Maintaining Mutually Respectful Relationships</p><p>Chapter 6: Making the Environment a Teacher</p><p>Chapter 7:<b> </b>Fostering Hard Fun</p><p>Part 3: Roadmaps for Unit and Lesson Planning</p><p>Chapter 8: Writing to Teach and Help Others Resolve Dilemmas</p><p>Chapter 9: Writing to Connect and Inspire</p><p>Chapter 10: Writing to Take a Stand</p><p>Chapter 11: Writing to Analyze</p><p>Appendices</p><p>Glossary</p>
