Introduction
Writing prompts are helpful tools for improving students’ writing skills. �ey provide a fun format for daily writing that inspires students to use their imaginations. �ey serve as an outlet for creativity and self-expression that can help students break through their inhibitions. Writing prompts can encourage students to look at the world around them in new and exciting ways, and help them see connections between concepts that they may not have otherwise noticed.
�e writing prompts in this pack are designed to make writing enjoyable for students and to encourage them to express themselves freely in writing. �ey encompass all four types of writing styles; expository, persuasive, descriptive, and narrative. �ey come in three di�erent formats; 1) a one page list, 2) a set of large cards, and 3) a set of small cards; so that you can use them conveniently in a variety of learning situations. For example, you can have students put the one page list in their writing folders to use for daily writing warm-ups. You can use the large cards for writing groups or literacy centers. �e small cards can be folded and put into a jar so that they can be chosen randomly. Also included in this product are thematic journal pages as well as a half-page word list that can provide students with inspiration or spelling help. �e resources in this pack can be used in a variety of situations including classrooms, a�er-school programs, homeschools, co-ops, and more.
