Writers Workshop: Opinion Writing Lessons

Looking for lessons to teach opinion writing in kindergarten or first grade? Writers Workshop is a wonderful way to incorporate all of the ELA standards while introducing your students to the love of writing. Writers Workshop Curriculum K-1 | Writing Through the Year™ was created by two kindergarten teachers with over 20 years of classroom experience. Each writing lesson has been classroom-tested and student-approved.

This is a unique unit in this comprehensive writing curriculum. In this unit, you will find a series of writing activities that will guide your teaching of opinion writing to your kindergarten or first grade students. These opinion writing activities will support your students right where they are. Students will be encouraged and guided as they learn to use illustrations and/or words to express themselves as writers. Every student can be successful, even those who do not know any letter sounds. The writing prompts can be used throughout the year and do not need to be taught sequentially.

YES! This is Standards-based. It follows Common Core as well as MOST State standards and TEKS. You will find the standards correlation guide in the product preview.
