Writing Worksop is the best way to organize your writing block. The schedule for a writing workshop looks something like this:
5- 10 minutes: 
Teacher selects a mini-lesson on writing for the whole class.
35-45 minutes: 
This is the heart of writing workshop. Teacher will conference with 1-4 students about their writing. Don't forget 2 praises and a push! Studnets will be working on various stages of the writing process during this time. They may be planning, prewriting, drafting, editing, revisiing, peer editing or publishing.
5-10 minutes: 
Teacher selects a few students to read their writing. Students can share part of what they read or their drafts or published pieces. This portion of writer's worksop is sometimes referred to as the author's chair.

Below are some complete unit resources for writing workshop lessons most of them come from www.ttms.org ,which has a wealth of information. I simply organized my favorites with a blurb on each manual. You can print the entire manual and place it in a binder for easier reference. These resources will save you a lot of money (from teacher stores) and are well written and very teacher friendly : )
