Teaching writing can be tough- especially when you have students who have low confidence or are not interested in writing because they never know what to write about!
I faced this problem every year. Some students were nervous to make mistakes and others could never come up with what to write about, and sat there 'thinking' the whole class period!
I came up with a pack of 2nd Grade Writing Centers that offer SO MANY options that they can't help but be drawn to one and begin writing.
