Adjectives Anchor Chart - Part 4
This adjective anchor chart format was taken from Step into 2nd Grade and my 6th graders loved it. They refer to this anchor chart a ton, which means it was effective. I always do a quick review at the beginning of the year with nouns, verbs and adjectives. I cut up a bunch of each type of word and put the in an envelope. The students then have to put the words under the correct category. After this, they identify the words in sentences.

Got Anchor Charts?
You might ask why I didn't jump on the band wagon when I first heard about these fabulous resources and the simple answer is...I'm stubborn. I didn't think they could help out my middle school classroom. Man, WAS I WRONG!
A few of my favorite things about anchor charts:
-Easy to make (just find one online for your inspiration)
-Mr. Sketch markers (I love the smell as I make anchor charts)
-Students refer to them daily!
-When a student asks me a question about something we have already learned, I can easily point to the anchor charts and the student can answer their own question.
-With more observations happening in my district, the observers always stop at my board where I store my charts and just stare. (I THINK this is a good thing)
-The colors. My students always try and guess which colors the anchor chart will be. So funny!
-Visual! So much easier for the visual learners. (I think everyone has the visual learner inside of them)
And now...a few anchor charts from our classroom. I seriously need to invest in a camera for my room :)
For info on where I received ideas on some of these info charts. Check out my Anchor Charts link on the left side of this blog.

SUCH a fun idea! Definitely going to do this one when we review adjectives. (Let me know if you know where this pic is from and I will link back)
