This PowerPoint includes 30 different prompts for quick writes in your classroom. Simply display a slide, set a timer and get your students writing.

Why should I do quick writes with my class?

To help students organise their ideas and practice creating texts. It is a quick form of writing practice where students can become fluent thinkers and writers. If you have reluctant writers these prompts are designed to engage their young minds and take the pressure off writing. If you have writers who take forever to get started, this is a great way to practice getting ideas onto the page.

These can be used as a whole class or printed as used in literacy rotations.

Let me know if you have any great quick write prompts that I should add.
