Description

No matter what your year looks like, this is an easy way to keep your students writing! Engage them with daily journal writing with 31 December prompts that focus on quirky holidays, important days in history, funny/inspirational quotes, and research.

Print or digital -- You'll get both!

Did you know that December 5 is Ninja Day and that December 13 is National Cocoa Day? (Neither did I!!) Those are two of the over thirty prompts you'll find in this resource. Topics include trivia, historical events, silly/serious holidays, research prompts, and thoughtful quotes. Topics that students love to explore and write about!

  • "As always great product, and such a time saver. "
  • "This is the second month I've been using these writing journals, and they are amazing!"

This is what you'll get:

a downloadable digital notebook and a printable version that include:
