The resources found here are intended to offer starting points for reflective thinking through journal writing in middle school learners. While some educators may already be using writing journals in their classroom routines, for others this may be a new initiative. Wherever you or your students are at in this journey, these prompts can offer useful starting places for reflection.

If you are ready to jump in, check out The Writing Room prompts about identity and family, facing challenges or being creative. Not quite sure what to do with these prompts? Check out the The Writing Room's Getting Started page, or review the Quick Tips below.
