(Freebie) Snowman Shadow Writing
Yeah I know, "Shadow Writing" is just a fun way to say copying, but my class seems to like it! I will work on making a few more if these are useful.

Cindy,
Thank you so much! I will put in my centers Monday!! Chris
Hello Cindy,
This is a great activity! Thanks for sharing!

Cindy, when I first read about shadow writing I didn't know what the person was talking about! After I figured it out I thought "Oh! What a cute way to say they copied the sentence!" I have some new freebies on my blog that you might like for pattern strips, using conversation hearts.

Thank you so much! I love it!!
You mentioned the book the Shadow Writing came from and I can't find any reviews of the book
(it looks like there are a lot of good ideas)and I was wondering if you use a lot of activities from this book or just the shadow writing. I have so many resources books (some very good ones and some not so good)but was curious how many ideas you use. I really liked the shadow writing activity for a center.
Thanks Cindy I think this is a great way to build confidence in their writing.
Wow what a great way to help those who are struggling with writing. Will put into a center on Monday. Thanks
I love the idea of shadow writing. It's just what I've been looking for. Glad I found your site. Thanks for sharing!
Thank you all for the nice feedback! My students have been really trying their best when shadow writing these last 2 weeks. I loved being able to give lots of compliments on their handwriting. It helps them to look closely at the details in print and to put their words on the line. I will work on a few more of these...
I just gave you an award!! Head over to my blog Kindergarten Is A Hoot to pick it up!!! :)

We did this today and the kids really did a great job! I think it was the best I have seen their handwriting in a really long time! Thanks so much for sharing it!
That is so wonderful to hear Candace! Thank you for taking the time to comment!
I am hoping to make a few more this weekend.
Thank you, super cute!
