I wanted to share with you my experience with journal writing in the grades 6-7-8 MALC Reading/Language Arts classes. Most days I write a journal prompt on the board for students to respond to. We started the year with requiring 3 sentences and have worked up to six sentences. The writing has improved dramatically. So much so that the kids can even hear the difference.
I purchased a book of prompts titled, "Write What You Think" at Barnes & Noble. It has 350creative writing prompts. If you would like to take a look at it let me know.
Please share your successes, frustrations, etc. with us on this blog. It will be helpful to everyone.
