Saint Patrick’s Day is a great time to encourage the thinking process in your students, and these two prompts are here to help.
Younger students will enjoy the categorizing and attention to words in this prompt. A free printable is included.
Older students will read of two examples and then use something concrete to explain a spiritual truth, just as Saint Patrick did. Find this thought-provoking prompt for 7th – 12th graders here. >>
Yours for more vibrant writing and literature experiences,
