Get ready to rake up some gratitude with the Thankful Tree Writing Prompt! This Thanksgiving activity combines creativity and reflection to create a heartfelt masterpiece, and no actual leaves will clog your yard. Perfect for kids who are full of thanks (and maybe a little too much turkey), this activity invites them to write and draw about the people, things, and snacks they’re most grateful for. The fun starts with crafting their very own Thankful Tree. Each "leaf" becomes a blank canvas for kids to jot down what warms their hearts, like family, friends, and possibly an unhealthy obsession with mac and cheese. Once the writing’s done, it’s time to branch out with some drawing! Students can add colorful flair to their trees, turning their gratitude into an autumnal work of art. This activity is ideal for classrooms or as a family bonding moment that doesn’t involve fighting over the remote. By the end, kids will have a beautiful Thankful Tree they’ll be proud to display, and you’ll have a little peace and quiet, at least until dessert. Fun, festive, and packed with good vibes, this writing prompt is a must-have for spreading gratitude (and maybe sneaking in a little spelling practice). Let’s get thankful! Enjoy!

Roll up your sleeves (and maybe pass the gravy) with the Helping Hands Writing Prompt! This Thanksgiving activity encourages kids to think about how they can lend a hand, without accidentally dropping the turkey. Writing and drawing come together in this heartwarming and hilarious project that showcases the many ways we can help others during the holiday season. First, kids will reflect on all the ways they’ve been helpful, or could be helpful, this Thanksgiving. Will they set the table without sneak-eating the rolls? Offer to do the dishes instead of disappearing into a pumpkin pie coma? Or maybe their “helping hands” involve cheering up a cranky relative with a joke about turkeys crossing the road. Whatever their helping superpower, it’s time to put it into words. Next, the artistic fun begins! Kids will draw their very own “helping hands,” complete with doodles of their Thanksgiving good deeds. Add in some colorful crayons, markers, or glitter (if you dare), and these hands will be ready to hang on the fridge, the classroom wall, or right next to the dessert table for everyone to admire. Perfect for inspiring gratitude, creativity, and just a touch of turkey humor, this activity is all about making Thanksgiving more special, one helping hand at a time! Enjoy!

Ready to get your learners working in a more gentle on-ramp to your class time? Maybe your homeschool already includes instruction, but a gentle warm-up to your learners' writing instruction is a great way to keep them motivated to learn more! It's recommended kids get 30 minutes of writing practice each day. Sometimes this seems overwhelming for the adults in the room, as it requires planning, formatting, and thoughtful composition. This resource has you covered! Choose to print or use the digital version. Objective: Provide done-for-you writing prompts for both younger and older learners. Formats: Use the provided PowerPoint format, or upload the PPT to Google Slides and have students respond by typing their responses. This is a great motivator for students who enjoy typing more than writing by hand. It also provides a more streamlined checking feature for teachers and supervising adults. Grades: Designed for native speakers in grades 2-5, but applicable for learners in grades 6-12 who are beginning their English-learning journey. Variations: This resource is also available in French and Spanish. What you'll get: This resource contains a PowerPoint file with 64 pages. It also has instructions, spaces for writing, and a certificate of completion. What people are saying: "Fun writing prompts. They really encouraged my child to keep writing beyond the first simple sentence! Great resource. Thank you!" -Jessica P. Looking for more English resources?
