What educators are saying

We use this journal as a way to sneak in some cursive practice each day in fun way. I like that each day is different and requires some though before writing. Thank you!
I used this journal activity in my junior high ELA classes last year. My students loved it and we had some great class discussions as a result. The prompts were relevant, creative and educational all at once!

Description

This bell ringer journal for the entire school year includes 275 English Language Arts journal prompts for middle and high school students. Bell ringer journals are one of the best back to school activities for creating and establishing routine.

This product provides teachers with an entire school year of journal prompts in an organized and focused way. The journal is organized by month with 25 entries per section. Students will strengthen their writing and critical thinking skills with these unique, higher level thinking bell ringers.

UPDATE

I have included an EDITABLE version of the bell ringer journal to help fit each teacher's needs! You can edit any of the questions and/or headings in the journal.
