What educators are saying

This is a great visual for my students to use while at writing center. I loved all the extras or resources that came with it! They love writing letters, post cards, mini books, etc.
Fantastic resource. Helpful for group and independent work. Students found this engaging and helpful.

Description

This writing center has been featured on Scholastic.com and numerous other websites. It is the original Writing Center on Teachers Pay Teachers and has been completely revised with more samples and new templates!!!

This kit is also available in a MONEY SAVING BUNDLE! Click here to check it out: Save With A Bundle: Writing Center and Information Folders - Student Resources for Reading, Writing, and Math


Make a Writing Center! Everything you need to set up a center full of ideas and successful writing tools perfect for Word Work, Literacy Centers, Work on Writing and more! I have made my center on a trifold project board so it will be portable, but this can also be used on walls, bulletin boards or placed in a Writing Notebook. Copies of "What Good Writers Do", "What Can I Write About?", Super Synonyms" and the alphabet chart are perfect to print for each student's writing journal/notebook.
Everything (samples and titles) are sized to fit a Trifold display board. Trifold boards can be purchased at Walmart, Target, Michaels, or any other craft or office supply stores.

This kit was made so you can pick and choose what fits your needs. Samples in this kit are differentiated for you to select the ones that best meet your grade level. There are two different titles to choose from and two sizes of titles to fit different sizes of tri-fold boards, bulletin boards, walls or binders. The larger titles are split onto several pages and will need to be cut and fit together.

Ideas and photos for setting up your board are included in the download. The following items are also included:
1. Two titles to choose from (Each title in 2 different sizes)
2. Example Headings. Headings included are: Letter, Story, List, Card, Postcard, Poem, Recipe, Book.
3. “What Can I Write About?” Story Prompts
4. "Super Synonyms" Printable
5. “What Good Writers Do” Printable
6. Alphabet/Number Chart
7. Bonus Writing Checklists - Cut and handout to students during the editing process

*This center includes printable samples/examples for each writing topic. Most samples have two versions to meet the needs of different grade levels. You can easily print the samples and post them on your board, or you could handwrite your own samples so the students can see authentic writing.

**BONUS - I've just added an update! Now includes a printable "WRITE" Banner to hang over the Writing Center board! VERY easy to assemble - just print and cut around the pencil shapes. Can be made into a banner (directions included) or just cut around the pencils and hang on the wall (without making into a banner). So Cute!
