These templates have made teaching writing through distance learning easier than I thought it would be. Each week we use a different topic and build on it each day. I don’t even have to think of topics! It’s a resource I will use time and time again.

I loved all of the planning pages that this resource had so that I could teach my grade 1’s about the planning process. They especially loved the hamburger paragraph.
