Oxbow Writing Project

Oxbow Writing Project The purpose of the Oxbow Writing Project is to develop area K-16 teachers as writers, learners, and

Summer Institute teacher participants will learn about their own writing strengths through daily writing and experimentation with various ideas, genres, styles, and formats. Writing is not a content area, it becomes a part of who one is. In a highly collaborative setting, participants and leaders will share teaching practices, read and discuss current research, and deepen understandings of the role of literacy as a powerful force for learning.
