Description

Independence plays such a role in our lives as Primary Teachers. We want students to be independently thinking and reflecting on their work.

I created these writing checklists for my own 1st graders for our Work-on-Writing time during Daily 5. With these checklists, students’ work was more focused and developed. As students worked, they would grab a checklist and staple it to the corner of their writing.Before sharing writing with our class or asking for a friend’s feedback, students were expected to reflect on their own work.

Included in this resource…

*Anchor-Chart Checklists

  • 5-Star Writing
  • Narrative
  • Opinion
  • Inform/explain
  • How-To Writing
  • Open-response writing

*Student Checklists (4-to-a-page) for each mode of writing

*Student-to-Student Feedback Form/Reflection

  • 1/2 page option (a celebration and a question)
  • 1/4 page option (letter format)

These checklists are classroom tested and approved. They are ideal for focusing your students’ writing and writing towards a goal.

    I love checklist and this was a way to help students review their work and make sure they had everything.

  2. Jacqueline S. –

    It is very helpful to have these checklists out in my class near the writing centre. This way students can freely write but are reminded of what different forms of writing should look like.

    These checklists helped my students take responsibility of their work. I like how the checklist is for different writing skills. My students liked having the checklist.

    This resource is great at getting kids to check their own writing before turning it in.

    Love this resource as it makes it easy to assess and grade writing quickly. I’m able to see what the student needs more support with and have a conference to provide explicit feedback

  7. Lisa V. –

    Awesome resource to add to my Writing Workshop curriculum. The checklists align with the writing and it is clear for my first graders to understand. Now they can see their next steps! Thank you for this resource.

  8. Jenna B. –

    thanks

  9. Karin H. –

    I put these on coloured paper, laminated them, and put them in my student’s work books. They could check their own writing before bringing it to me! Was really simple and helpful for teaching them to edit their own work.

    We added these checklists to the student’s Resource Folders for easy independent access. We also post the poster size one in the work space, while we are on the topic to reinforce the needed concepts.

Downloads

How do I access my downloads?

Right after you check out, your download links are on the order confirmation page, and your receipt email has the same links. Don’t see the email? Check your spam or promotions folder.

You can also grab your files anytime: log in and go to My Account > Downloads.

My download is a .zip file. How do I open it?

Each resource downloads as a .zip folder that holds all of its files.

  • iPhone or iPad: open the Files app, find the zip in Downloads, and tap it. It unzips into a folder you can open.
  • Mac: double-click the zip.
  • Windows: right-click the zip and choose Extract All.
My file won’t open or shows a file-path error.

This usually happens on Windows when the files are unzipped inside the Downloads folder, because the folder path gets too long. Move the zip to your Desktop, then right-click it and choose Extract All.

Still stuck? Reach out and I’ll help.
