To produce an anchor chart in the classroom requires very little in the way of resources other than some chart paper and some colored markers. HOW ARE ANCHOR CHARTS CREATED IN THE CLASSROOM? When deciding what to include on a chart, think about the concepts, strategies, and prior learning that will most help students to work independently when engaged in their work. Usually, a co-creation between the student and the teacher, the charts should contain only the essential information regarding the topic. When anchor charts are self-produced, they are usually handwritten in large print and displayed in a prominent position in the classroom for easy reference.

Usually well-presented in bold lettering using dynamic colors, professionally-produced charts work well for topics that recur throughout the course of the year and are complex enough to require ongoing reinforcement.
