Less than $5 1st Grade Creative Writing Activities

Suggesting prompts can be extremely helpful for students when it comes to writing. By providing a prompt, you can give students a specific topic or area to focus on, which can help them better organize their thoughts and ideas. Additionally, writing prompts can help spark creativity and encourage students to think outside the box.

There are six St. Patrick's Day writing prompts, including coordinating primary handwriting pages. Students can also illustrate a scene in the space above their writing.

Not only will using writing prompts help get your students excited about writing, but it will also help them to practice and improve their skills. By focusing on specific areas such as grammar, punctuation, and spelling, your students will hone their technique and produce well-written pieces of work. They’ll also be able to develop their unique voice and style – something essential for any writer!

A creative and fun way to get students writing in French.

I created this resources out of a need in my class to do quick and simple Earth Day activities that are easy, fun, and engaging and gets them thinking of ways that they can help the Earth.

Once I got started creating these cute little activities, I thought it might be fun for students to make their favourite little craft. They just love these ‘surprise’ crafts when they can open them up and see all the writing inside!

How we use this in class:

Students are encouraged to write about the ways they can protect the planet, how to recycle old materials, how reusing is a great way of upcycling something that you are giving a new purpose for and how that can help the earth to heal.

What is included in this resource?

I have included step-by-step instructions on how to put it all together for students to build their own concept of the craft.

Included are:

-4 x Colour versions of the world that may be cut and pasted with and without the googly eyes

-4 x Black and white versions of the Earth that may also be colour cut and pasted for students to build their craft.
