Pinterest Prompts

Are you a fan of Pinterest? I have a board that is filling up with photos that include writing prompts. Here's an example:


A leprechaun has taken up residence in your backyard. Tell the story about what living with this new neighbor is like.
You can find all of the prompts here: Photo Prompts. If you find a photograph that is just begging to be added to my photo prompts board, please let me know.

Prompts for Middle Schoolers List

This is a good list of writing prompts to get us started: Middle School Writing Prompts. It's in a Google Doc which makes it incredibly easy for you to save it into your docs list for future reference. An example prompt from this list:
"Through the years new inventions have changed the way we live. Think about one invention that has had an impact on the way you live. Now write to explain to your teacher how this invention has changed your life."
