Feedback For All!

How do you get the time to give relevant feedback to 30 students during one writing session?

Here are some ideas:

- Limit your comments to one piece of feedback and one piece of feed-forward.
- You don't have to read the whole piece of writing, just a paragraph, or maybe just the hook.
- Only comment on the learning intention, why spend twenty minutes teaching them How to structure a recount, and then comment on spelling? That can come later, during editing and re-crafting.

How do you manage it?
