What educators are saying
Description
Complete with a printable student workbook, these bell ringers are sure to engage your students in unique quality writing. Give students a lot of variety and practice with the writing process, interdisciplinary writing, and multiple genres by including this resource in your daily practices.
This product includes 180 slides and the accompanied workbook for one entire school year of daily writing, but it is versatile enough to work whenever you need in your curriculum. In addition, I have included 20 additional filler Bell Ringers, in case one of the 180 doesn’t suit your needs or you require additional ones.
