Robert has presented overviews of Matrix Writing to teachers and afterward the principal reported being begged by teachers for more training.
 
In other schools, Robert has presented Matrix Writing to one group of teachers, then a few months later been invited back because the rest of the staff wanted the training after seeing it in action.
 
So, why do teachers love Matrix Writing? 
 
Here are a few of the reasons:
 
  • It makes teachers more confident and excited about teaching writing by letting them in on the secrets of real authors.
  • It does not consume more of the teachers valuable time. Instead, it makes more efficient use of activities teachers are already doing, such as book talks and writer’s workshop.
  • Teachers discover what to talk about during book talks.
  • Teachers learn what specific suggestions to make during writer’s workshop, even for those stories that appear "done."
  • Teachers using Robert Pottle’s Matrix Writing, not only notice improvements in students’ writing, but also in comprehension! Once students understand the elements, structure, and craft of stories, comprehension improves.
