Writing Center Activities Menu: Writing Posters and Writing Templates
- PDF
What educators are saying
Description
Help strengthen and develop your students' writing skills. Hang this eye-catching display in your writing center for students to refer to when they visit, or, use it as part of The Daily 5.
With this writing menu, children can choose a writing activity that suits their interests. They can explore different topics, genres, and formats of writing, which will help them develop their writing skills and express their creativity.
Most of the menu choices come with differentiated writing templates. Depending on the menu choice, students can use a template that provides more or less support. Just keep a supply of the templates near the menu and your writing center is always ready to go! Students can also use this menu when they are finished with their center work, for extra writing practice.
