About this event
About the speaker: Kate is the Assistant Director, Curriculum for Nord Anglia Education. She works for the global education team and is based at Nord Anglia International School Hong Kong.
Kate originally trained as an English teacher in the U.K. and has 18 years of experience in education. She has a Master’s and Ph.D. in Education, specializing in teacher professional development.
About the webinar: This webinar will explore how to use close reading practices to reveal the features of a writer’s craft. We will explore how to use experimentation and imitation strategies to expand students’ writing range and provide them with opportunities to create a toolkit of expertise that can scaffold their own unique creative writing voice.
About the organizer of this event: Chatteris Education Foundation and Nord Anglia University have started a collaboration since 2020. We are collaborating on a professional learning initiative that is purposeful, relevant, engaging and meaningful to teachers in the local and international sectors. Our aim is to engage teachers in both sectors to encourage a dialogic, collaborative and professional partnership in which teachers can take a deep dive into their teaching and learning practices by learning from and working in partnership with each other. We join hands together to give support to teachers and all educators, especially during this challenging time.

Please note:
The Valley of Writers team scours the web looking for the most inspiring, elevating, and accessible events that we can share as a service to our readers.
The big idea is that in a virtual arena, more people can participate. Geographical boundaries matter less.
The events we list are virtual and can be attended by writers from wherever they are in the world.
Unless otherwise stated, we are not affiliated with and do not benefit financially from the events we post. Listing is not an endorsement of the content, opinions, or products promoted by the event organizers we feature here.
Please verify all dates, times and other event details as these are subject to change and are beyond our control.
What qualifies an event as ‘lit’? Any event that we think would teach writers of fiction, memoir, and poetry useful skills, inspire them to produce great work, remind them of the power of this work we do and build stronger, mutually beneficial ties between writers and other creatives.
