Writing Extravaganza!

Help me give my students all the tools they need to be successful writers!

My Project

These basic supplies will be used to create a writing station in my classroom where students can come and go as they please during the various stages of the writing process.

The goal for this project is to have the tools necessary for students at there various writing points.

From a whole group lesson on the giant magnetic paper to looking back at group made anchor charts, these supplies are meant to assist in the process of writing from start to finish!

My students love doing their final masterpieces in pen on "fancy" colored paper! It makes it a fun way to end all of their hard work.
