Description
Calling all writing heroes! In this action-packed session, Juan E. Gonzalez Jr. will guide you on an epic mission to unleash the superpowers of young writers. Faced with a classroom of varying skill levels, we’ll wield the ultimate secret weapon: graphic organizers!
Graphic organizers have long been a staple in education, but Juan’s innovative approach breathes new life into this timeless tool.
