Description

No more dull opening lines! These interactive Google Slides help your students craft engaging hooks and captivating opening lines for their personal narratives and essay introductions.

Are you tired of students starting their essays with predictable rhetorical questions or sounding like infomercials? (see what I did there?) This resource helps middle schoolers break free from the rhetorical question habit.

These Google Slides guide your students through a series of steps to create fantastic hooks for any writing assignment.

Here's how this resource helps you:

✅ These slides provide complete lessons, covering everything from hooks to introductions, and even include a gradual release process to support your students' learning.

✅ No more searching for examples and graphics to compile a lesson. This resource is a massive time-saver, providing you with ready-to-use content.

Your students will practice various types of hooks, including:

  1. The bold statement
  2. Statistic or fact
  3. Vivid description

With guided practice, students will explore definitions, examine examples, and then apply the skill through scaffolded activities. Finally, they'll have the opportunity to craft their own hooks.

The impact on their writing will be immediate! Plus, you can print some of the slides to create visual reminders on your classroom walls throughout the year.

The resource provides clear examples and engages students with high-interest topics. It also guides them through a two-step brainstorming process to help generate creative hooks.

This product is ready to upload and go. To make it even more fun, you can turn it into a game by having students share their hooks and challenging the class to identify the topic and type of hook.

Go into a deeper lesson on hooks by using my Hook Digital Gallery Walk.

This is LESSON 2 in my series: AMPLIFY YOUR WRITING. Lesson 1 is a self-guided tour through the world of VOICE. Check it out here!

Then move on to lesson 3: SENTENCE STRUCTURE


I specialize in writing and have created a 10-video professional development course. It shows you step-by-step how to engage your writers by teaching the six high-priority skills during workshops, while teaching essays during “blocks.” My students are now begging for writing time! Check out the training HERE.
