Creative Writing Center Prompts

These Creative Writing Center Prompts, Build a Story, are a great way to keep your students engaged and wanting to write. My BUILD A STORY allows just the right amount of prompting for your reluctant writers, but still giving your more fluent writers the choices they need and want!  With this product, students are given the characters and setting, and then they write their own story. There are 51 different writing activities. These are in black and white.

HOW IT WORKS:

Here's how we made this work for us:  I put ten copies of a writing page in sheet protectors (and about 5 different topic pages - so five different sheet protectors).  These go into a binder in the writing center.  When students are in the writing center, they grab binder, find a page that they want to work on, pull it out of the sheet protector and then begin their writing.  It's easy to manage, easy to store, and it gives just the right amount of choice for first graders. We've also done it where there are about 20 different pages in a binder and students write their story and keep it in the binder.  Once the stories are complete, these become a book binder in our center.  But I found the top suggestion works better for us.

• My students love creative writing! Thank you!

• This resource really enhanced my lessons on the importance of setting in both our reading and in our writing.
