Did you know that October 21st is the NCTE's National Day on Writing? Celebrate with your students by giving them extra time to write in a genre of their choice and to share and celebrate their writing with others!
The link below features various authors talking about why they write. Share a few of these audio clips with your students and then have them compose and share (or record) their own "Why I Write" statements for the National Day on Writing!

Here are some of my favorite books for teaching and supporting the writing process, which are great to share and discuss on October 21st...or anytime throughout the year!
