It’s that time again… This-coming week is Mid-Year Self-Evaluation Time in my class’s Writing Workshop.
I’ve revamped the Mid-Year Self-Evaluation to reflect the questions from not only Buckner’s Book (as I have done in the past), but from Elliott’s Book, along with some of my own questions. It’s a lot less intensive on photocopying entries from the writer’s notebook than past mid-year self evals have been (This is due to the fact that I’ve found kids spend too much time worrying about what to copy and not enough time reflecting.).
If you’re interested in receiving a PDF of the revised Mid-Year Self-Evaluation I’m using next week, then leave a comment on this post, with your e-mail address (It will not be published since it’s only visible to me.) and I’ll send it to you.
I am a literacy consultant who focuses on writing workshop. I've been working with K-6 teachers and students since 2009. Prior to that, I was a fourth and fifth-grade teacher in New York City and Rhode Island.
I'm the author of Craft Moves (Stenhouse Publishers, 2016) and the co-author of Jump Into Writing (Zaner-Bloser, 2021), Welcome to Writing Workshop (Stenhouse Publishers, 2019), and Day By Day (Stenhouse, 2010).
I live in Central Pennsylvania with my husband and children. In my free time, I enjoy swimming, doing Pilates, cooking, baking, making ice cream, and reading novels.

Hello Stacey,
I am very new to your web site, however, you have some amazing ideas! I was wondering if I could get a copy of your mid-year self evaluation also? I am a literacy teacher in Newark, NJ and would love and appreciate any writing help. Thank you. : )
hi i was looking threw your work and saw that your friends with an old friend of mine tiffany colon.. i would love to hear from her if you could tell her i said hi diego from bayonne… she could contact me at casais201@hotmail.. thank you so much…
I would love to see a copy of this! Thank you so very much for all that you share. I don’t know how you do it all, but I’m so appreciative that you do!
I’d love a copy. I found the same last year; my students focused way too much on the “what to copy” than on the reflecting.
Thanks so much for all you do. Anytime I’m feeling workshop is falling apart at the seams, I read your blog and am reminded of the powerful work my students are doing, whether or not I can see it at that exact moment. I appreciate your dedication!
Stacy-
You are a wonderful mentor. You keep pushing me to set higher standards for myself and my kids. I would love a copy of your mid-year evaluation. Thank you for offering.
I would love to have a copy – I’m reading Aimee Buckner’s book currently and love the idea. Thank you!
