Hi I’m DeeDee Wills. My years of experience teaching in elementary school environments and assisting teachers has allowed me to build the resources you need to help you better our classroom environment.
I’ve been right where you are today, and I want to help you identify the best mentor texts to use in your writing instruction so you can establish a management plan that works.
I have worked with thousands of teachers, and I can’t wait to share what WORKS in my next FREE webinar.
There was a time when teaching writing was a struggle for me. I knew it was essential to my classroom’s success, but I was simply overwhelmed. It was time to hit the books and get back to basics, so that’s just what I did.
After testing it out in my own classroom, I was able to tackle some of my biggest challenges, and along the way, I documented everything that worked.
Using my knowledge of writing instruction and my experience in the classroom, I have helped teachers turn writer’s workshop into their favorite time of day. I’d love to do the same for you, and that’s why I’m hosting this webinar.
Have you ever tried to bake something new but were not sure which ingredients to include? Perhaps, you had heard someone talking about the ingredients you would need, but were not confident on how to put them all together. How many eggs? Do I need to sift the flour first? What temperature should I set the oven on? You can spend a lot of time on trial and error. You can get frustrated and want to give up. But guess what? You don’t have to bake this cake by yourself. I’m going to show you what you need to know!
Now… this is a BIG CAKE! So I will do this webinar as a series. Each session will be LIVE so you can ask questions. Also each session will have 5 quick wins so you will walk away each week with 5 things you can do for success!

Yes! I do provide a certificate of attendance. The link to this certificate is provided towards the end of the presentation. You are welcome to submit this certificate to your school, district, or state. Please check with those agencies for their policies regarding credit.

Remember, if you would like a certificate of attendance you will find those inside of the webinar. Just sure to download the handouts.
Also, school emails are notoriously problematic due to their firewall settings. If you have another email you can use, you may find it easier to connect.
