95: How to Incorporate Journaling into Your Counseling Sessions with Literacy Specialist Megan Polk

I think today’s topic will resonate with you all. It’s a topic that hits close to home for me regarding my son, which is all about reluctant writers. I’m so excited because we have the literacy guru on today’s show: Megan Polk, who is also a presenter at our summer virtual conference, Educate &amp; Rejuvenate! Both Megan and I have a great conversation regarding reluctant writers and how to boost their engagement, interest, and motivation when it comes to writing. One of the things Megan specializes in is bridging the educational gap of content through grade levels. We’ve talked on previous podcasts before about the learning gaps due to COVID, and writing is no exception. Not only are students reluctant to write, but adding in their gaps, makes it seem impossible for our students. The majority of our conversation was surrounded by building a student’s confidence and celebrating the small victories in their writing that will eventually lead to big victories. Other solutions include modeling how to write, providing scaffolds, establishing routine one-on-one writing conferences, focusing on one writing skill at a time, and sharing their writing with peers or younger grade-level classes.
