Today I learned that a writer's notebook has only one rule.....write in it everyday! There are no other rules as to what should be written or in what format. Which really makes me happy! I can let go of the myth that a writer's notebook has a special format or has to be written in a certain way.
My goal is to keep this notebook and write in it every day this summer. I hope to gather ideas to encourage and teach our students how to use a writer's notebook to inspire their own writing. How do you use writer's notebooks with your students?
