I asked students to bring a hanger, preferably a skirt-type one. For the plain hangers, we used clip clothespins to hold the writings. There we displayed our work. When the students finish a test early or if I need to fill 5-10 minutes, I direct them to The Closet. They choose a hanger and respond to the contents on Post-It Notes I keep on the closet shelf.
Writers periodically check their hanger for peer responses.
These racks are easily moved around, even out of the room. The students like having their work displayed and shared. I've liked fish since I was 8 or 9. I got into tropical fish when my parents took me to Florida on year for Christmas. I swam in the ocean in Tallahassee.
