These genre posters are designed to spark creativity and guide students in their writing journey. They will serve as valuable aids during your writing block, promoting a deeper understanding of different writing styles and their purposes. This writing center also includes a variety of writing paper templates that can be used for ALL 10 types of writing. The paper options come with regular AND primary lines so that they can be easily differentiated and used across all elementary grades. A digital option comes with this resource, too!

If you ONLY need the digital option, check out this DIGITAL Writing Center!

Posters Include:

• Narrative (Personal Narrative)
• Story
• Book
• List
• Letter
• Postcard
• Recipe
• Poem
• Card
• Journal

Your students will love the colorful visual examples on each full-size poster, but you can also print these in a mini-size without losing the quality of the text or graphics. Print full pages for wall anchor charts or shrink these on a copy machine for mini-posters. You can also print from the document and change the slide “handouts” (the more on a page, the smaller they become) for mini-posters. Another option is to add them to rings to allow them to become portable and travel around the room!

All posters are 8.5x11 and come in color and black and white! LOTS of paper templates included!

Prep is quick and easy... Just print the anchor charts and printable templates, gather the materials your students will need, and you're ready for a fun and engaging writing center!

TEACHERS LIKE YOU SAID…

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Gemma C. says, "A strong visual resource to help my students work on the different types of writing styles and purposes. Each of my students is building a folder to be able to use this as a reference. I love it!!” 

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Cassadie G. says, "I have purchased many of her resources and this one fits perfectly into my collection! I love how concise the information is and how different-sized posters can be utilized! I can use the large one for teaching, while the students can have their mini copy by shrinking the size down! You will not be disappointed in this resource and will probably come back to purchase more from her. :)"

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Leaders and Literacy says, "I love the visual supports to help students INDEPENDENTLY do each of the styles of writing. With Daily 5, I am meeting with a small group when my first graders are responsible for using the writing center. I needed a way for them to get started and write without coming up to ask me what it should look like or what is expected of them. Thank you SO much for creating these!"

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Ellen B. says, "This is the perfect addition to my writing center. It's a wonderful visual for students to help them remember the different types of writing. Thank you for this!"
