Using Writing Prompts
One of the best ways to satisfy the need for writing daily is by using writing prompts. Using prompts is an easy way to keep students engaged and excited about writing. They help prevent writer’s block, inspire creative and independent thinking, and give students a level of comfort when asked to take risks.
Keep writing prompts simple and open to interpretation, sometimes a simple title will suffice. Some examples of such prompts are:
My first day of School
Bugs
My Classroom
What I like About My Friends
My Best Birthday
“Good writing resource. Cannot wait to use with my Kinders next year!”
“Really helpful to start a new school year! These are great :)”
“Thanks! I’m looking for ways to support my beginning writers and readers.”
“Love this resource :)”
“I use this a lot.”
