Let's Write February!

I love these monthly writing lessons.

The come with lesson plans as well as all the activities to build writing skills in your classroom.

Each month focuses on 4 pieces of literature to stimulate writing narrative, opinion, and informational pieces.

The activities provide graphic organizers for gathering ideas.

These are followed by pages at differentiated levels for "first writes".

Activities for editing are included as I feel strongly that students need to practice correcting and recognizing their mistakes in their writing.

The packet also includes grammar practice.

This particular lesson works with antonyms.

I try to point them out in specific pieces of student writing.
