Essay Writing Prompts Opinion, Persuasive, Informative
This file includes 20 essay writing prompt ideas. I use these at the beginning of the year to introduce thesis. Without having students compose the entire essay we practice writing a thesis directed to each of the specific assignments. Later in the year we pick and choose which essays to construct.
This document can be used at various elementary levels. You may need to reword the phrasing to be appropriate for younger grades.
