In Writing with Mentors, high school teachers Allison Marchetti and Rebekah O’Dell prove that the key to cultivating productive, resourceful writers-writers who can see value and purpose for writing beyond school-is using dynamic, hot-off-the-press mentor texts. In this practical guide, they provide savvy strategies for:–finding and storing fresh new mentor texts, from trusted traditional sources to the social mediums of the day –grouping mentor texts in clusters that show a diverse range of topics, styles, and approaches –teaching with lessons that demonstrate the enormous potential of mentor texts at every stage of the writing process.
