The 8 Picture Writing Prompts & Lesson Plan: Setting, Characters, & Dialogue provides teachers with a simple way to teach students about setting and mood and how to add character development and meaningful dialogue. The slideshow works well in grades 6-12 English Language Arts classes as well as Creative Writing classes or clubs. It is so versatile that GATE, RSP, ELL, and General Ed students will be able to compose a story to at least one of the slides, if not more. This plan comes with a total of 21 slides ready to use individually, or as a set. Teachers can choose to have their students go through the writing process, including pre-writing (using the guided questions, to drafting, peer response, rewriting, and publication) with the goal of finishing a complete story or they can use the slides as practice. The photos of settings are either copyrighted images by the photographer Simon Timbers or are copyright-free photos from unsplash.com Lesson Plan for Setting, Characters, and Dialogue will be a valuable addition to any writing classroom.

2025 July ELA Bell Ringers

2025 July ELA Bell Ringers
Resources for Teachers, ELA, Writing, Creative Writing, Life Studies, Research, High School, Homeschool Resources, Middle School, Worksheets & Printables, Writing Prompts, Teacher Tools, Assessments, Quizzes and Tests

As a homeschool mom who has struggled with keeping my teenagers engaged in meaningful learning during those lazy summer days, I know how challenging it can be to maintain momentum without overwhelming busy schedules. That is exactly why I created these July ELA Bell Ringers – 23 carefully planned daily activities that take just 10-15 minutes but pack a real punch in terms of skill building. I have watched my own daughter groan at the thought of "summer school," but these quick, varied exercises actually get them excited about writing again. Each activity builds naturally on the previous day's work, creating a gentle but effective learning progression that keeps minds sharp without feeling like drudgery. INCLUDED IN THIS RESOURCE: 23 unique daily activities that actually hold teenager attention (trust me, I've tested these!) Grammar lessons that make sense instead of just drilling rules Creative writing prompts that spark imagination – from dystopian fiction to unreliable narrators Poetry analysis using works kids can actually connect with, including Emily Dickinson and Maya Angelou TOPICS COVERED: Real-world grammar that improves writing instead of just test performance Literary analysis skills that prepare students for challenging texts Creative writing across genres that builds confidence and voice Vocabulary development through meaningful context, not memorization These July Bell Ringers grew out of my own frustration with summer slide and my determination to find something that actually worked with real teenagers in real families. After years of watching my kids and their friends struggle with the transition back to academic work each fall, I knew there had to be a better way. This collection maintains rigor while respecting the reality of summer schedules and teenage attention spans. It's the resource I wish I had had when my oldest was heading into challenging literature courses – something that built genuine skills without killing the joy of reading and writing. Most of all, it prepares students not just for the next grade level but for the independent thinking and clear communication they'll need throughout their lives. If you and your students/homeschoolers, enjoyed this resource, please leave a review. Thank you for your support! Tina - Big Easy Homeschooling Mom
