I found this resource when I was searching for items to help my deaf students with their writing. I loved this because not only was it free, but it had pictures with the word bank which made it easy for my students to pick the word(s) they wanted to use! I have not used all of it yet, but my students felt very comfortable, and successful, with the part they have already used. Can’t wait to use the other items I purchased!

This has been an awesome resource during my morning choices time where the students can pick a prompt and are able to write with limited support to the differentiation this provides.

These prompt pages give just enough structure for my first grade bunch while allowing them to write their own sentences. It’s helpful for them to learn to use a word bank as well.

Excellent resource! I can’t say enough about it! I am currently teaching Reading to K-5th grade. With the two year COVID crisis, our kids have fallen behind. This writing resource has been a great help to my students.
