Unlike state test writing prompts that require a linguistics degree and an energy drink 6-pack, these simple & easy prompts give flexibility to teach writing your way. For Teachers - Little to no prep, quick and fun ways to start morning work, essays, or class discussions. Plus, the added convenience for sub days, computer lab, long-term absences, homework, or extra credit. For Parents - Summer vacation tune-ups. Contents - Creative (26) Plus - Teacher Notes How do these writing prompts meet 75% Common Core Writing Standards for grades 3-7? Easy, the standards are all the same. The standards want these grades to learn how to write persuasion, expository, fiction, non-fiction, and practice routinely. For example, third grade calls it "opinion" writing, and by seventh grade it is called "persuasion" with a thesis and examples. Increased expectations and teacher guidance creates the difference between grades. These numerous prompts facilitate differentiated success. It's just a matter of matching the prompt to the students' needs. Practice, Supplement, & Enrich Follow The Harstad Collection, offering similar upper-elementary listings, on TeachersPayTeachers.com |
