This bundle includes all 36 descriptive, 33 persuasive, and 42 opinion prompts! These 111 prompts will certainly give you choices. Students are bound to find topics they love. When they love the prompt it makes writing way more fun.

Paragraph of the Week is making my students amazing little writers! ❤️ This structured, consistent approach allows students to focus on their writing skills and not the directions. Each week has the same format with a new topic. It is a 4 day format so you can send it as homework or keep it in the classroom. It is successfully used both ways at our school.

✏Day 1 Students gather their thoughts and ideas. Then, they select the 3 favorite ideas to include in the paragraph.

✏Day 2 Students develop the ideas into sentences. They also add a supporting detail (or 2, differentiation) for sentence.

✏Day 3 Writing the introduction and conclusion sentences. Students also reread the day 2 sentences to revise for word choice and grammar.

✏Day 4 Students write the final draft and check for convention errors.

All topics are personal so you're students are automatic experts on the content. There is no research to be done to complete these paragraphs. All the content comes from their personal experiences and thoughts. There are no wrong answers here.

All text boxes are already placed for the students.

This product also includes a blank editable set of slides for you to personalize your own topics, a rubric, a completed sample.
