Writing Fun for All!

Help me give my students the materials needed to grow their imaginations. Chart paper and markers will help us plan our writing, and dry erase markers will help us execute it!

My Project

My 3 kindergarten classes are growing leaps and bounds every day, but need more materials to help with their instruction. Their ideas are coming out quicker than they can think them up and by organizing the thoughts, we are better able to execute them!

Anchor charts are an essential tool in Kindergarten, to allow us to find the information we need in more than one central place (the teacher).

By giving children the opportunity to have a bit of a productive struggle when planning their writing, we provide them the ability to work sounds and structures on their own.

By providing chart paper, markers, and dry erase materials, the students will have endless opportunities to create and share their thinking and their work. As a bonus, they are working on respecting materials and caring for them as needed.
