Introductory Writing Lessons for K-2: Writing Scaffolds, Organizers, & Rubrics
- PDF
What educators are saying
Description
Writers workshop - the subject that drives fear into the hearts of teachers and is so often ignored/forgotten because “We do a lot of writing in reading.” Nothing can replace explicit writing instruction, mentor texts, time spent writing, and students sharing their writing.
My goals for the first 2-3 weeks of our writing together include…
*give students hands-on experiences to write about
*show that everyone is a writer
*provide scaffolds that allow everyone to be successful
*eliminate writing fear
*foster an environment where students feel safe to share their writing
*build basic writing skills that will carry-over to writer’s workshop
The resources and mini-lessons in this download are intended to be pre-Writer’s Workshop in 1st grade, building a strong writing foundation for all of your students. Included in this resource...
All the materials and information you need to implement the mini-lessons (rubrics, sentence stems, student work samples, teacher prompts, etc.)
