My Writing Placemat

A Writer's Placemat is a portable word wall to help scaffold young writers!

This file contains lists students commonly use during Writer's Workshop that can be cut and made into a writing placemat. This is especially helpful when word wall space is limited or when students work around the room. Students can also keep placemats in their desks and can pull them out when needed. These are also an awesome addition to your Work on Writing center.
