Description
This comprehensive Interactive Writing Center is a huge bundle that includes a year's worth of highly motivational and engaging writing activities for students from preschool through second grade as well as all of the supplies needed to get started. It includes colored samples for reference, everything you need to set up your center, differentiated writing activities, holiday themed writing practice, and so much more!
What is an Interactive Writing Center?
An Interactive Writing Center will transform the way you do centers! It is a bulletin board (or other display) where students can see colored or printer-friendly black & white examples of your expectations. Students love that they get to CHOOSE the writing activity. I love that I can meet with my small groups or struggling students while several students are working at my Interactive Writing & Math Centers. They never ask me questions because the examples are in front of them. If they finish one activity, they simply choose another option to start on. The Interactive Writing Center is highly-engaging and fun for students. They will learn to LOVE to write!

Supplies to decorate your center are included. Once you have your center set up, you simply switch out the ready-made activities and samples on your bulletin board making it easy to always have your station in tip-top shape! Students can work independently at the center.
