Hello everyone, and welcome back to a brand new episode of Elevating Early Childhood!
Itās been a while, so I hope youāre as excited as I am about catching up.
In this weekās episode, Iāll be talking about something every early childhood classroom in my opinion should have: A writing center.
Writing centers are a great way to teach young children how to use their imagination. Plus, theyāre also the perfect gateway to teaching them how language and literacy work.
I always get asked questions about how to set up writing centers and what kind of materials are needed etc..
Writing centers can be pretty tricky, so itās completely understandable if some of youāre feeling overwhelmed.
Lucky for you, Iām here to help.
Today, Iāll be sharing with you everything you need to set up a successful and super fun writing center in your classroom.
