Less than $5 Homeschool Writing Resources

When it comes to writing, suggesting prompts can be extremely helpful for students. 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 Christmas-themed writing prompts, with coordinating primary handwriting pages included. 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!

Is coloring loved in your classroom and homeschool? What could make it even better? Using coloring pages as a way to learn the letters of the alphabet and learning about a word of a food that starts with that letter. Each coloring page has the uppercase and lowercase letters to color in with the image of a food that starts with that letter and the word that goes with that food to trace. Helping them with creativity and fine motor skills.

Great ways to use these are during your homeschool day to give them a chance to be creative and learn their letters and how to write letters. In the classroom this is a great way to give students something to do when they have finished their assignment, indoor recess fun and even great for when you have a sub in your classroom.
