How will you celebrate Thanksgiving in the classroom this year? How about using some fun Thanksgiving writing prompts instead of those old boring ones that we've been using forever.
For the older children, I've created this fun Thanksgiving writing prompt set. It can also be used as a classroom decoration too and they even make great cupcake toppers. These Thanksgiving story starters are not your typical Thanksgiving writing prompts. They are fun and original. Here's one of my favorite Thanksgiving writing prompts for kids:
You just saw a turkey wearing a pilgrim hat running from the police.
I promise, your kids will have a lot more fun with this prompt than the typical "what will you do for Thanksgiving" prompt. These prompts will help you meet Common Core writing standards for writing imaginative narratives. W.2.3, W.3.3, W.4.3, W.5.3
The set includes 24 Thanksgiving and Harvest Day themed story starters in color,
six themed images for classroom decoration, three pages of graphic
organizers, and eleven themed writing pages. Add in the two pages of
instructional material and writing tips for teachers, and you're ready
to go. You can start using these the first day of November and use a
prompt each day or use them during the week of Thanksgiving. They will
work well during the Thanksgiving short week of school. These are perfect for classrooms and for homeschool writing.
These materials are just right for 2nd through 5th grade students and
are perfect for narrative paragraphs, event paragraphs, narrative
essays, and event essays. Plus, you'll get your students excited to use
their creative writing skills.
