Selecting appropriate writing center activities can be a challenge, given that students have varying levels of skills and interests.

It’s essential to provide activities that cater to students at different levels of writing skills, from beginning writers to those who can write sentences and paragraphs confidently. The Groundhog Day writing center is designed to meet the diverse learning needs of your students as they learn to write independently, whether it’s simple words, sentences or paragraphs.
With this Groundhog Day writing center, you have several options for digital writing activities on Google Slides, Boom Learning or Seesaw.
The digital writing center activities can be used as a stand-alone activity with engaging colorful slides for your students to move images and write the words and sentences. This allows for even more writing options and engagement for students.
Note: Seesaw users can move an actual magnifying glass to find the hidden word on the page!
