If your rockin' writers use Six-Trait Writing, you'll definitely want to include these displays around your classroom throughout the year. Each trait (e.g. voice, word choice, organization, ideas, sentence fluency, conventions) is colorfully illustrated with descriptions, hints, and examples.

Instructional Ideas

  • Have learners design their own examples for the "Instead of this, try this" portion at the bottom of the learning displays
  • Post a new display each time you cover a new writing trait
  • Use posters as a hub for other displays of explanations or examples of the trait, similar to a brainstorming web
