40 Writing Prompts With Graphic Organizers

This collection of descriptive, narrative, expository and persuasive prompts sparks students’ imaginations, scaffolds the writing process, and gets them prepared for writing tests. You can choose from a range of highly-motivating topics, such as an outrageous monster-for-sale advert that leads to narrative writing, and a kid-invented holiday that students must persuade their teachers to observe. Reproducible activity pages for each prompt include brainstorming guidance, a list of exciting words, tips on organizing the writing, a graphic organizer designed just for that prompt, and a model lead. The perfect way to get all your young writers started!
