WRITER'S WORKSHOP MINI LESSONS

Establishing a Workshop Routine

As these mini lessons are taught, an Anchor Chart is created.  I take digital photos of my class in action for each lesson and add the pictures to chart.  Once finished, my class uses the Anchor Chart as a reminder of workshop expectations.  We reference the anchor chart whenever necessary.  Below is a template of what my Anchor Chart looks like.
