Learning From the Best Through Mentor Texts

Help me give my students a collection of mentor texts to provide them rich examples of skills and concepts we are working on so that they can set high expectations for their own learning.

My Project

Can Kindergarteners write? Yes, they can!

Having these mentor texts, will allow me to show my students a variety of genres, writing styles, text features, and conventions from real authors.

These texts will provide my students with rich examples of the skill they are working on during writing workshop. It will guide them to take risks, help to strengthen their writing and provide them with a road map as they're trying to find their own voices as writers. With your support, my students will have the tools they need to become different writers tomorrow than they are today.
