    • The Springfield Republican ran a feature about this year’s Best Practices event at its online home with MassLive and one of the WMWP founders and former director, Charlie Moran, was honored this year with the Pat Hunter Award for his work in nurturing, supporting and guiding the writing project forward over the years.

      I really enjoyed Charlie Moran’s talk about Pat Hunter and how things started at the Western MA Writing Project. He is so deserving of the award, and it was a treat to hear him speak. The session on teaching students about bias in the media was another highlight for me, and, although I didn’t get to the session, word has it there’s another great ELL teacher at our site from this year’s Summer Institute.
