This is a four part writing workshop sequence that could be used in either a one-off carousel style lesson or split into 4 separate lessons with a mini assessment at the end.

I’ve used it previously over the course of three days. Split my class into 4 mixed ability groups. Day One I had each group attend to two activities. The next day, they got involved with the final two stations and then on the third day they composed a piece of descriptive writing and I was able to see if they were using the techniques they had explored the previous days.
