Anchor Chart for Beginning Writers

ANCHOR CHARTS ARE AN ESSENTIAL TOOL USED TO SUPPORT INSTRUCTION.

As you teach, you use your anchor charts to capture strategies that students can refer back to during mini-lessons, small groups, and independent writing time. Anchor charts also help build a culture of literacy by making the thinking visible as well as supporting all different learners within your classroom (i.e., visual, auditory, ELLs).

Anchor charts are typically created in real-time with students during a mini-lesson. They can display both student and teacher thinking by including teacher and student writing samples.

Then, you can display them on the wall for students to refer back to. Make sure to update them throughout the school year.
