Monday Makeover

welcome to makeover monday. today's blog post will help a first-grade teacher makeover a writing workshop anchor chart.

here is the original anchor chart made.

how can we make our anchor charts go from good to GREAT??

we can... 

• add images to our words (so important)
• add some color to our anchor charts 
• use lettering that is simple (don't get too fancy)
• build our anchor charts with our student's
• print some of the text on the computer (tomorrow's blog post)
• add interactive writing to our charts  

 smarter charts by marjorie martinelli and kristine mraz is a great resource to have for making anchor charts.


happy monday!
