Description
Narrative writing prompts with pictures for reluctant writers and writers of all abilities in 4th, 5th, 6th, and 7th grade. These dyslexia friendly imaginative story starters, covering a range of subjects and genres, feature a high-quality visual stimulus, word bank, first sentence or part sentence, sentence starters, and prompt questions to get ideas flowing. Ideal for whole class as regular warm up activities, morning work, daily quick writes, early finisher challenges, homework tasks, main writing lessons, sub lessons, some special education (SPED) contexts, and dyslexia intervention. They are no prep printables (or laminate to use again and again).
- There are 20 printable full-page story writing prompts in PDF format, or you can assign them as digital activities, using Easel.
- Use them to inspire a whole story, or maybe just a few creative sentences without worrying about completing a story
- The cards feature a dyslexia-friendly font and clear layout
- Laminate to use again and again
- Originally designed with Upper Elementary and Middle School students in mind, but might suit others
- All 20 prompts are included with and without background color. The version with the background color can reduce glare for dyslexic students. However, if you would prefer an eco-printing option, use the version without the background color. If you have dyslexia-friendly colored paper, you could print the non-background version on this instead.
- U.S. spelling is used but additional U.K. spelling versions are included at the end of the file with a small number of amendments (these also use "full stop" in the checking box instead of "period" that is used in the U.S. version)
- The checking box at the bottom of each card reminds students to read their work aloud and check for periods, capital letters, and common spellings
- Covers a range of subjects and genres including sport, mystery, humor, adventure, science fiction, fantasy, and historical - students can choose those that appeal to them
- Teacher notes and a guide to the prompts is included at the start of the file.
Please check the preview file to assess suitability for your students.
