180 Journal Writing Prompts: Enough for Every Day of the School Year - 6 views

    • Carrie Mitchell
       
      I like that there are a variety of prompts that would appeal to any student.  Some are shorter, others longer.  The variety of questions would allow me easy access to impromtu writing on the spot if I would have a couple of extra minutes at the end of class or need a "bell assignment".  Some of these could very easily develop into meaningful class discussion especially in a Catholic morality class.
