The Writing Center - 2011/12

I love a big open space where I can spread out and work. Most kids do too! Last year, I set up my writing center for Kindergartners underneath the word wall. I kept materials handy in baskets nearby, but avoided clutter by changing them out every now and then. I offered choices besides paper, with dry erase and doodle boards. The children often used the word wall and surrounding posters in a purposeful way when they worked on writing. The writing center was the place to write. :)
