DETAILED DESCRIPTION:
These 183 video writing prompts are meant to be a fun way to engage students in the writing process. You get 183 different video writing prompts to choose from, each asking students to "Caption This!" or you can add your own text in the editable PowerPoint. This gives you even more options, meaning you could potentially use them multiple times to focus on different types of writing.
You also get five editable video writing prompt response sheets in PowerPoint. Three are "caption this" sheets - one with three responses, a second with five, and a third option with ten lines.
The two other response sheets allow for pre-writing skills (details, prediction, title+) and a paragraph writing response sheet with a vocabulary focus.
These work great for writing centers, on days where your writing time is cut short (late starts and early releases, anyone?), when students have lost their focus, or when you want to take a break from a bigger writing project. They can also be used in a special education classroom where you want to keep the writing simple and not overwhelming.
There are not any rubrics included in this download. I would sometimes grade on completion, sometimes focus on a specific skill or goal (vocabulary or punctuation), and othertimes skip the grading. (Because I was laughing too hard at the student responses! Those days I called it a community building.)
Give these a try with your second, third, fourth, fifth, sixth, seventh, or eighth grade classroom or homeschool students. You're sure to bring some fun into the day!
Thanks for looking!
