March Writing Prompts Journal

Description

What’s Included?

This isn’t just a list of sentences; it is a complete journaling system. Each month is packed with:

• Individual Journal Pages: A unique, dedicated page for every day of the month.
• Diverse Prompt Styles: A balanced mix of “light and fun” topics and “deep-dive” prompts that challenge students to think critically about values, history, and social issues.

Here are two examples:
March 3rd – (Star Spangled Banner became the U.S. national anthem)
The Star Spangled Banner was written during the Revolution, but it didn’t become the national anthem until 1931. Some people think that it’s a great anthem. Other people think that it isn’t. What do you think? If we were to change the national anthem, what would you want to have instead? Or would you not want to change it, no matter what?

March 24th – (Tuberculosis bacillus discovered)
In 1882, a German scientist named Robert Koch isolated the bacillus that cased tuberculosis. Tuberculosis still kills about two million people annually worldwide. However, this discovery enabled scientist to fight this disease, which can be vaccinated against, and cured. If you could cure one disease, what would it be? Why would you choose to cure that disease?

How to implement it:

• Daily Starts: Start your morning or English period with a 10-minute quiet writing session.
• Fast-Finisher Activity: Keep your “early birds” engaged with a meaningful task that doesn’t feel like “busy work.”
• Homeschool Portfolios: Use these daily entries to track progress in handwriting, grammar, and expressive thought throughout the year.
• Digital or Print: These pages are designed to be “print-and-go” ready, but they also work beautifully as digital assignments. Simply give them to your student(s) and allow them to create a word document for each. First, have them copy (type) the prompt. Then answer it! Print and place in a growing 3 ring-binder of work.
