Organizing a writing center in an elementary classroom can be simple if you have the right package! One of the hardest parts of teaching writing is guiding students through the entire writing process as they move along through a piece of writing. That's what led me to create this Writing Center Kit that helps keep them organized and walks them through the different forms of writing.
With this kit, students can learn about the three forms of writing while covering all 3rd, 4th, and 5th-grade writing standards without even realizing it. This kit includes easy prep activities, printables, and a center station set-up (posters, prompts) that will help you build organized writing centers! These centers focus on opinion, informative, and narrative writing for the 3rd, 4th, and 5th grades Common Core.
