I have been inspired by Katie's writing prompts in a jar for awhile now. So I decided to make some back to school writing prompts. (You can get them at my TpT store here.)
I really want to create different prompts and cards for all sorts of themes and types of writing. This started the search for the right type of container or jar. I have looked everywhere and so far I am thinking of using these mini-canister plastic jars at Dollar Tree. They also have these plastic stackable baskets that two of the jars fit perfectly. I think then I could stack them up and have a whole little writing prompt area.
I wanted my writing prompts to reflect different types of writing so I created 100 prompts with 10 prompts for each of the following types of writing:
Persuasive
Writing
Expository
WritingNewspaper Articles
Descriptive Writing
Personal Narratives
Creative Writing – Stories
Creative Writing – Poetry
Responding to Quotes
Letter Writing
Comic Strips
Here is a little preview. I just need to print, cut, and laminate them.
I also made jar labels:
I love this idea, especially since I'm always scrambling to find ideas to write about!! Awesome job! :)
