Winter Writing Prompts – print and digital options
My students love to write using these winter writing prompts! These prompts have a vocabulary word bank for each picture to naturally differentiate your writing center. Even my most emergent, timid writers shine using them!
***SAVE 20% on the YEARLONG PICTURE PROMPTS BUNDLE***
Included in this resource:
- 25 winter picture prompts BOTH PRIMARY and REGULAR lined options
- DIGITAL prompts
- 2 blank writing templates
- Sight word reference printable
- Writing checklist anchor chart (2 styles)
- Seesaw images included to upload if you want
Each page has a very basic picture and vocabulary words students may very likely use in their writing. I believe the picture should be simple so students can use their creativity while writing. Students can use the printables for different types: narrative, informative, and opinion writing. My favorite part of these printables is the student checklist reminder at the bottom of the paper. I have also included a basic sight word list to post in your writing center to assist with those tricky words.
I believe students should be given choices as often as possible. To organize, I mount one on a file folder, tape the sides, laminate, and put copies in the folder for them to easily choose. With so many choices, this writing center will be engaging for months!

Love these picture prompts so much. I like that they have vocabulary words on the sides for students to use in their writing. I also like that there are 2 different kinds of lined paper to choose from.

To say that there was excitement in the room when I introduced these resources would be a huge understatement. We started with the dog and cat writing which they loved. Even my strugglers were writing! The word bank is fantastic and the fact that they got to draw and color after they wrote was a win! I had groans when I said that we finished with centers. Most had not gotten to the picture because they were working on the words. That has never happened! The winter scene is another huge hit!

This is a choice at our writing center. The students love these because of the word choice help on the side. They are not hung up on spelling with these and can just write.
