101 Journal Prompts

Journaling is such a great way to have your students practice writing, while getting a peek into their personality at the same time. While journaling might be fun, coming up with prompts every day can get a little old. To help you out with this, I've created a resource that makes the entire process simple:

More about this resource:

101 Creative Journal Prompts organized by different types of writing. Easily choose a prompt that fits your writing lesson. 

Writing types include: 
- Persuasive
- Descriptive
- Expository
- Narrative
- Fiction
- Nonfiction
- Letter Writing

Put the prompts in the back of student journals for handy reference OR use them for a daily journal prompt. 

You can also use these prompts as a station in your writing center!

Also included: a teacher check-off sheet to help you keep track of the prompts you have used. 
All prompts were created to be appropriate for elementary AND secondary. 

All prompts can be easily adapted to fit your writing unit or age group.
