Fourth Grade Writing Prompts #9:
Grab Bag #3
This last set of fourth grade writing prompts has no particular subject but may give your children and students more leeway for creativity. If you've tried everything to get your kids writing, this may just the solution you're looking for. You may notice that the numbers on this page do not start at 1 and work their way up. This is because these 10 fourth grade writing prompts are an excerpt from my book, 500 Writing Prompts for Kids: First Grade through Fifth Grade. If you like these free samples, the full version is available in both digital and paperback form.
