100 Opinion Paragraph Writing Prompts

Description

This set of 100 Opinion Writing Prompts is presented on a consistent template that includes a prewriting planning area especially for struggling writers. These prompts are designed specifically with students in grades 4 to 12. This set includes Teacher Instruction pages, an OREO anchor chart, a reference page of clue words for topic sentences, a reference page for transition phrases, 2 blank templates for differentiated writing instruction, and 2 topic lists to be used separately from the prompt pages. 110 pages total!

If you have a student with writing disabilities, this approach has been a game-changer for my students! The consistent format reinforces that each new paragraph type is an extension of what has previously been learned, rather than an entirely new system of writing. The student can select from familiar topics, or the teacher can assign a given worksheet.

This set is perfect for special education to conduct writing Curriculum-Based Measures for IEPS. It is also great for homeschool families who need lots of practice in each skill rather than a lot of technical instruction.

I use this approach to prepare students with the underlying skills needed for writing 5-paragraph essays.

Included in the set:

• Cover with Directions
• Terms of Use
• Teacher Instructions
• 2 pages of Check Up forms, 6 forms on each page
