"Patty McGee should be called the ′Writer Whisperer.′ She offers brilliant advice for helping struggling writers, accomplished writers, and all those in between."
―Debbie Silver, Co-author of Teaching Kids to Thrive
The number one challenge of student writers today isn’t word choice, logic, voice, or even grammar and spelling―it’s buy-in. In Feedback That Moves Writers Forward, Patty McGee shares how to’s for teaching that changes the writing-as-obligation vibe for good. She demonstrates the way feedback can inspire students to reach new heights as writers. With Patty’s help, you learn to:
- Resign from your position as Corrector-in-Chief and be amazed as students eagerly take over responsibility for refining their writing
- Apply the research on growth mindset and goal setting, whether you use a writing program or a workshop model
- Use tone, trust, and language to quicken students’ discovery of their writing identities and take risks when they are stuck
- Use student work to deliver clear, just-in-time feedback during planning, drafting, revising, and editing
- Use the online printable forms for delivering customized feedback with just the right wording
- Balance grading and feedback
- Help writers reflect so they are better able to apply what they learned about content, craft, and style to their future writing
One of the bravest things we can do as teachers is to admit when a long held practice isn’t working. Error-focused feedback is one such practice. So put down the red pen, pick up this book, and learn to say the right thing at the right time to develop fearless, original, and intentional writers―in any content area.

Information regarding the right of withdrawal
Statutory right to withdraw
You have the right to withdraw from this contract within 14 days without giving any reason.
The withdrawal period will expire after 14 days from the day on which you acquire, or a third party other than the carrier and indicated by you acquires, physical possession of the last good or the last lot or piece.
To exercise the right of withdrawal, electronically fill in and submit a clear statement on our website, under "My Purchases" in "My Account". We will communicate to you an acknowledgement of receipt of such a withdrawal on a durable medium (e.g. by e-mail) without delay.
To meet the withdrawal deadline, it is sufficient for you to send your communication concerning your exercise of the right of withdrawal before the withdrawal period has expired.
Effects of withdrawal
If you withdraw from this contract, we will reimburse to you all payments received from you, including the costs of delivery (except for the supplementary costs arising if you chose a type of delivery other than the least expensive type of standard delivery offered by us).
We may make a deduction from the reimbursement for loss in value of any goods supplied, if the loss is the result of unnecessary handling by you.
We will make the reimbursement without undue delay, and not later than 14 days after the day on which we are informed about your decision to withdraw from this contract.
We will make the reimbursement using the same means of payment as you used for the initial transaction, unless you have expressly agreed otherwise; in any event, you will not incur any fees as a result of such reimbursement.
