Video Writing Prompts

Image from TeachHub.com

We've all heard it . . "I can't think of any ideas", "I don't know what to write", "I don't know where to start" . . and the most frequent response from students when given a writing assignment . . "I'm thinking!" - to which the teacher replies, "Well, 'think' a little faster."

TeachHub.com offers teachers a new way to approach writing in their classrooms. They are called Video Writing Prompts  and they are offered for grades K-12.

Take it one step further and have your students create their own Video Writing Prompt and share with other colleagues. What a great way to transfer ownership to your students and allow your classroom to become one that is student-centered!
