These inspired me to create my own “Think Like and Author, Write Like an Author” bulletin boards. I love looking for new authors and mentor texts to inspire me and my students as writers.
I’ve written more about some of my favorite mentor texts at these posts:
Making Mentor Texts Meaningful and Memorable
Collecting Mentor Texts for Writing
Thanks to the authors at Blog Hoppin’ for helping me get my booty in gear and motivating me to blog for 5 days in a row! Hurrah!
I have a new job in second grade this year where I’ll actually be able to TEACH, not just distract children from jumping on the air conditioner. I’m excited to take lots of pictures and start posting about TEACHING again. Hooray!
Great post! I want to ramp up my writing instruction this year, so I'll be coming back to check out those links!
