How To Sequence Writing

Image
I used to dread doing the How to Sequencing writing unit.  It just seemed really hard for the students to grasp.  This year I decided to really focus on creating booklets that would help my students.  I know it’s good for students to draw the pictures but I decided to put the pictures in for them so they could focus on the writing.  And I also did the unit later in the year when my students had more writing experience.  So I came up with these booklets and this was the first time I enjoyed the unit and my students looked forward to the writing that day.  You can find this activity in my TPT store at the following link: How To Sequencing Booklets Enjoy!

Draw and Write Books for Writing Workshop

Hi, I wanted to share my Draw and Write books that I have created for my students this year.  I created 3 different booklet options that I could print out throughout the year as they started to write more aka more lines available for them.  I also made the books letter size and legal size.  I start out the year with legal size books and then get them down to letter size near the end of the year.  With the legal size the covers are usually white but with the letter sized book, you could use coloured card stock on the front cover.   Letter sized book options: 1 – Cover, Inside cover, Drawing and Writing page (1 line) 2 – Cover, Inside cover, Drawing and Writing page (2 lines) 3 – Cover, Inside cover, Drawing page, Writing page (3 lines) *all booklets have large and small line options Legal sized book options: 1 – Cover, Inside cover, Drawing and writing page (1 line) 2 – Cover, Inside cover, Drawing page, writing page (2 lines) 3 – Cover, Insi
