LaNesha is sharing her top 5 tips for setting up a writing block that fosters student independence! ✍️📚
1. Start teaching the writing process chant from day one. It lays the foundation for all the awesome writing strategies coming their way!
2. Make writing appealing with a variety of writing zones, paper choices, staplers, envelopes, stickers, hole punches, and more. Let’s make writing fun and hands-on!
3. Get your stack of mentor texts ready to get students excited about writing. Favorites include the Alpert series or What Would You Do In A Book About You by Jean Reidy.
4. Focus on the process, not just the craft, for the first month. Use chants, checklists, and management charts so students can track their progress independently.
5. Define success with clear, structured goals using standards and tools like The Writing Rope. Set monthly targets to see growth!
