This set came to be when I was thinking of the skills my students will need at the beginning of the year. My students will need to learn how to follow directions, use fine motor skills, build their writing stamina, and learn how to draw items efficiently to allow them to focus not the task of writing sentences. I have decided to create a draw and write set with 10 items that are commonly used in my students' writing at the beginning of the year. This will help them build very important skills to start the year. The pack is 35 pages and each back to school item has 2 versions of step by step drawing directions, plus a writing space. This will be great for my writing center time and to help build writing stamina during writer's workshop.
Grab the new product here! To celebrate the revealing of my new Draw and Write Pack, I am offering a flash freebie of my Kids Clip Art Set that contains images of the kids from the draw and write set. Get the FLASH FREEBIE here! I would love feedback for the freebie if you have the time! I can't wait to check out the other masterpieces created by other teachers!
Happy teaching!
This looks amazing! As a sixth grade teacher, I'm amazed at what you have to do to create something kids will understand. Looks great!
ReplyDeleteThank you for your kind words! It takes a lot of trial and error to break the drawings down into parts the kids can understand. Once they learn it, they don't forget it! :) Thanks for stopping by!
DeleteCute! I can see the kids just loving this! Many kids love to draw and they can be working on following directions and fine motor skills as well! Great idea! I will be sure to check out your Flash Freebie and TpT store!

Thank you for stopping by! The kids do love these activities. :) They always ask me if they can take the pages home right away to continue to practice with their families. So cute :). I love when students are working on important skills, but are so engaged they don't even realize it!
