N2  - When Lucy Calkins wrote the first edition of The Art of 
       Teaching Writing, the writing workshop was a fledgling 
       idea, piloted by a few brave innovators. Now, as she 
       brings us this new edition, the writing workshop is at the
       foundation of language arts education throughout the 
       English-speaking world. This new edition, then, could 
       easily have been a restatement, in grander, more confident
       tones, of the original classic. Instead, it is an almost 
       entirely new book.  Clearly, during the time in which 
       Calkins's original ideas have spread like wildfire, her 
       focus has not been on articulating and defending those 
       ideas, but on developing and rethinking them. Respecting 
       and responding to the questions which have arisen as 
       thousands of teachers establish writing workshops in their
       classrooms, and drawing upon the latest knowledge in the 
       field and her own intimate understanding of classroom life,
       Calkins has re-thought every line and every facet of her 
       original text.  In this new edition, Lucy has major new 
       chapters on assessment, thematic studies, writing 
       throughout the day, reading/writing relationships, 
       publication, curriculum development, nonfiction writing 
       and home/school connections
