Abstract	Intended for teachers and encompassing all aspects of teaching writing, this book applies the process paradigm to junior and senior high writing instruction. Part 1, "Process and Paradigm," outlines challenges faced by junior and senior high school writing instructors, defines the process paradigm, and presents a sample integrated activity. Part 2, "Creating a Community of Writers," discusses climate in the classroom, planning for a writing-centered class, first-day and first-week activities, writing workshops and journals, and writing to learn every day. Part 3, "Designing and Conducting Writing Activities," presents ideas on designing writing activities and assignments, prewriting, guided imagery, drafting, revising, peer writing groups, and publication. Part 4, "Evaluating Writing," discusses the traditional English teacher's use of the red pen, and provides guidelines on responding, evaluating and grading. Part 5, "Writing To Learn," suggests integrated activities for learning subject matter and discusses collaborative research and term papers. (Seven pages of references are included.) (ARH)
