The Girl Who Stole An Elephant Word Mat

Encourage children to write like an author with this double-sided author word mat!

While reading books, I note down adventurous vocabulary and sentence structures that the author uses. I then pull all of this together to make a word mat for that book, separated into sections: verbs, adverbs, adjectives, nouns and phrases to inspire children to write like an author. As the word mat is separated into sections, it makes it so much more accessible for children to use independently.
