Instructional Ideas
- Start off each day for a few weeks with a writing prompt to get pupils into journaling
- Allow for some time to share responses after the writing is complete
- Pick and choose prompts and pair them with related lessons and units
Classroom Considerations
- The first slide does include the teachers name and the year the prompts were created, and you cannot edit the resource; however, you don't need to show the first slide, and you could easily transfer the prompts to your own slide show
Pros
- These prompts still require thought, but allow for less formal writing that can help learners build their abilities
- Journaling is generally a less stressful environment to help learners write fluidly
Cons
- None
