Dear Lara,
I LOVE these anchor charts that your students created. Not only do I think they will be more likely to use an anchor chart that they have right at their fingertips, but I believe they will be empowered to use these charts because they designed them. Ownership equals investment. I can't wait to see more examples! I can't wait to try it out in my room too.
I am posting a few pictures of my writing workshop mentor text board during our fairy tale unit. We charted the writing "moves" we noticed authors making, the name we decided upon for that move, why we thought authors used the move, examples from mentor texts, and examples from the students' writing. As you can see from the board, we charted various versions of Little Red Riding Hood, and the students wrote their own versions of the story. We will be writing informational pieces during our next writing unit focusing on insects to coordinate with our FOSS science unit. I will try to post a few pics of that board as well.
Frances
