[@learningattheprimarypond]

Do you feel like your current curriculum(s) give you helpful guidance on where to begin? I’d love to know, type YES or NO in the comments.

I just purchased your writing workshop curriculum after I took your webinar and it's awesome! I especially like that it eases into the writing and takes it step by step so that each student can feel successful. Side note: I made writing folders for my students with the anchor charts that you created and the folders just happened to be red. So the students nicknamed them the "Little Red Writing(hood) Folders." 😊

Oh my gosh, loving the folder names!!

No. The curriculum assumes our kindergarten kids can do so much more. In addition, our schedule has a very short writing time.
