Daily Writing Prompts Gr. 1-5

If a little writing every day is the surest way for students to improve their writing skills, then teachers need idea banks for mini-lessons that can jump-start no-fuss writing activities—and this book supplies almost 200, one for every day of the school year. Main themes are celebrations, seasons, animals, fantasy, and autobiography. Each mini-lesson comes on a reproducible handout accompanied by a page of teacher set-up that suggests a reading from popular children's literature, plus 12 more lessons that target specific grammar skills. Grades 1–5. Suggested readings. Illustrated. 8½" x 11". Good Year. 382 pages.
