2012 Conference for Secondary

Students and Teachers

Wednesday, November 7, 2012

University Center Great Hall, Oklahoma City University

The Oklahoma Writing Project invites you to attend the annual “Write To Win” Conference for Secondary Students and Teachers. Each teacher may bring 5 students per adult, grades 6-12. Parents and student teachers are welcome, too. Register soon.

Students will choose two workshops appropriate for their grade level. Workshops will provide pre-writing and drafting activities for various genres--poetry, essays, personal narratives, descriptions, flash fiction, short stories, and interviews. Teachers will attend separate workshops, focusing on successful methods for teaching writing in the classroom. Oklahoma Writing Project Teacher Consultants will present all workshops. After lunch, a general session will offer students the chance to write and share with their teachers. All students will leave the conference with a rough draft of a piece they may enter in the 2013 OWP Writing Contest.

Lunch is available at various places on campus, or students may bring a sack lunch. Teachers may also take students out for lunch.
