Spot the Prompt:

This fun game lets students read a prompt and identify if it is narrative, informational, or opinion. Students will use 3 SPOTS to determine which type of prompt they are reading. Once the team determines that they agree, the next player will go! At the end, students will record their findings on a worksheet that is included. This is a great assessment for the teacher to check their understanding of the 3 types of prompts!
