Listen Later

Hello everyone, and welcome back to a brand new episode of Elevating Early Childhood!

It’s been a while, so I hope you’re as excited as I am about catching up.

In this week’s episode, I’ll be talking about something every early childhood classroom -in my opinion- should have: A writing center.

Writing centers are a great way to teach young children how to use their imagination. Plus, they're also the perfect getaway to teaching them language and how it works

I always get asked questions about how to set up writing centers and what kind of materials are needed etc..

Writing centers can be pretty tricky, so it’s completely understandable if some of you feel overwhelmed.

Lucky for you, I’m here to help.

Today, I’ll be sharing with you everything you need to set up a successful and super fun writing center in your classroom.
