This was one of the texts used in a "Teachers as Writers" course I took at Rutgers University through the National Writing Project. Many of Childers' lessons led to very interesting discussions within the group, but as a 10 year veteran of the New Jersey public school system, I had a very difficult time imagining find the time to implement them in our current high school curriculum. But I refuse to despair. I will continue to consider, edit, revise the suggestions in this text until I can fit them into my day.
