Language Arts Success: Top 10 List, 2025 Edition

As the calendar year comes to a close, a teacher’s journey is still moving at full speed. (It’s true!) We are not quite to the halfway mark of our year, and we still have much to do! As 2025 comes to a close and before you begin the second semester, I would encourage you to take a moment, stop, and reflect. It is good for the mind and soul to take note of one’s progress. What successes are you seeing in the classroom? Are you on the track you had planned? Do you need to make adjustments?

To help you do so, we've assembled a list of our top 10 most popular language arts blog posts from 2025. From motivation techniques to writing extensions to language arts centers, these articles examine ways to ignite learning while building a solid foundation for #ELAsuccess.
