Help Kids Write! Animated posters


Help Kids Write is a wonderful resource!

This site is from LaRae Kendrick, a veteran teacher and nationally know presenter on 6-Tratis.  She's created some very clever posters to help kids remember the traits.

Each page features a character who embodies the trait. Included are essential ideas about each trait. This would make a great smart-board intro to each trait!

Here's a link to Ida Ideas! You can click through all of the traits from this page.
