Second Grade Non-Fiction Writing Anchor Charts (Lucy Calkins Inspired)

We can teach about the world! Students learn to write their own science or social studies topic based non-fiction chapter books to teach others. They will learn to use non-fiction features such as bold words and diagrams to elaborate their writing. These charts are aligned to the National Common Core Standards and Texas Essential Knowledge and Skills. Choose from 16 colorful anchor charts for your second grade class. The charts are differentiated for English-language learners, at-risk students and students with special needs. Show charts on your SmartBoard, make class set copies to put in student's writing folder, or draw an identical one on a big chart paper. You could also use them for writing centers or work in a small group with students who need extra support.
