I am so very excited to get an entire block each day devoted just to writing and grammar. I am requesting some tools to make this block as successful and fun as possible.
One of the most important tools we use is a writing folder. The folders that I am requesting are the best I have ever seen. They are divided into four sections for planning, drafting, revising and editing. As a huge bonus, they also stand up and act as privacy partitions, or as the kids call them, "offices".
I am also requesting table organizers to keep our writing tools at the ready, reams of age specific writing paper, and some fun writing centers to keep students engaged in between stories. They include writing prompts, and story starters to make the whole process more fun and help when we might get stuck.
