Creative strategies for getting young students excited about
writing
Don’t Forget to Write for the Elementary Grades offers 50
creative writing lesson plans from the imaginative and highly
acclaimed 826 National writing labs. Created as a resource to reach
all students (even those most resistant to creative writing), the
lessons range from goofy fun (like ‘The Other Toy Story: Make Your
Toys Come to Life’) to practical, from sports to science, music to
mysteries. These lessons are written by experts, and favorite
novelists, actors, and other celebrities pitched in too. Lessons
are linked to the Common Core State Standards.

publishing organization with locations in eight cities across the
country. Our goal is to assist students ages 6 to 18 with their
writing skills, and to help teachers get their classes excited
about writing. Our work is based on the understanding that great
leaps in learning can happen with one-on-one attention, and that
strong writing skills are fundamental to future success.
