500 WRITING PROMPTS FOR KIDS 1ST GRADE - 5TH GRADE REVIEW & BOOK & $50.00 AMAZON GIFT CARD GIVEAWAY

Between Twitter and texting, Facebook and television, kids are either both too busy and over-stimulated to express themselves eloquently, or they’re so used to keeping things under 140 characters that they simply don’t know how.

500 Writing Prompts for Kids is a book full of story starters that'll have kids writing paragraphs again in no time! These 500 prompts are open-ended questions that stimulate the imagination and may have your kids writing well past the bell. It can be used by teachers, parents, babysitters, tutors and even overachieving third graders!

Here are just a few of the applications the book can be used for:
• Writing tests
• Journal prompts
• Story, poem and essay exercises
• “Get to know your classmates” activities
• Spelling and grammar assignments
• Extra credit projects
• Writing songs, creating art and adding to bulletin boards

Author Bryan Cohen has spent several years creating prompts to stimulate the minds and pencils of adults and kids alike. His "1,000 Creative Writing Prompts: Ideas for Blogs, Scripts, Stories and More" has been a fixture in the Writing Skills Top 10 since its creation and he hopes to create even more prompts books in the future.

Buy It: 500 Writing Prompts for Kids: First Grade through Fifth Grade Kindle Edition sells for $2.99 and the paperback book sells for $6.99. Both variations can be purchased through Amazon.
