Max Brand

In this video, Max Brand confers individually with two different boys in his fifth grade classroom—one during writer's workshop, the other during reading workshop. Max demonstrates the key elements of successful literacy conferences with boys—plenty of wait time, homing in on specific text, and discussing reading or writing strategies the student is using.
