Use these 25 standards-based, interactive Writing Skills & Strategies Bookmarks, correlating posters, and Google Slides to differentiate for student needs and practice specific writing strategies. These can also be used for test prep, homework, small group instruction, and independent writing practice. Use the 23 Google slides to model skills for the whole class. Use the 8.5 x 11 inch poster during small group instruction to reteach a skill.

Bookmarks are designed with 4 bookmarks to a page, which saves on copying and paper waste, and much of the text is in the Open Dyslexic font to support struggling readers. Bookmarks and posters can be printed in either color or grayscale/B&W.

My own students are absolutely in love with these bookmarks. We recently completed the Show, Don't Tell bookmark since that is a skill so many kids struggle with. When coupled with the Tell Me A Great Story bookmark and Google Slide as a reminder how sensory details can bring a story to life, the kids were excited to get down to writing. And their stories actually turned out really good with a lot of variety to them.
