HOW TO USE:

1. Choose a sign for your center.

2. Choose whether you want to display the monthly pockets or the types of writing pockets.

3. Print the cover page for student notebooks. NOTEBOOKS: Recommended- 200 pages (100 sheets)- Use front and back.

4. Print either the monthly pocket or the monthly cover page and tab for student notebooks. If using color paper, print the tab the same color. For the notebooks, I suggest paper, not card stock. It will get too heavy.

How To Put the Notebook Together: I suggest to do them per month, not assign so many pages per month and put them together all at one time. Why? Each month has different school days. Although there are 24 prompts per month, there are only 20 weekdays in a month and some months are less due to holidays, teacher workdays, etc.

5. Print the task cards for the month. Since there are 24, you will have plenty for the month! To save on ink, you can print them black and white and/or on color paper. I like card stock for the centers.

6. Decide if you want to assign a prompt or have students choose. There are 4 prompts per type of writing: Narrative, Opinion, Informative, Descriptive, Persuasive, How-To

7. Once you assign a prompt, have the student write the prompt at the top of the page. OR Optional: Resize the task cards and have students paste them at the top of the page. Go to print, choose multiple, then custom, then 1X2.

8. Hand out a graphic organizer: I’ve included a paragraph graphic organizer and an essay graphic organizer. I also have a packet of free graphic organizers in my store. Paste the organizer on one side and write on the other. To save space, you can tape the graphic organizer over the writing when completed.
