Description
"Your dog has decided to learn a language. Convince him why French would be a good idea." If you're struggling for ideas to get kids started with creative writing, look no further. This book contains fun prompts (1-4 per page) on a variety of subjects as well as space for responses. Please note, a few prompts reference witchcraft or ghosts/ghost stories. For example, "Write a witch's spell." Pages are not numbered, thus encouraging the teachers or students to flip through until something strikes their fancy. Use as a supplement to a creative writing study, a great activity for the imaginative child, or an encouragement for creative thinking. - Laura
