CCSS Writing Standards
How do these writing prompts meet 75% Common Core Writing Standards for grades 3-7?
Easy, the standards are all the same. The standards want these grades to learn how to write persuasion, expository, fiction, non-fiction, and practice routinely. For example, third grade calls it "opinion" writing, and by seventh grade it is called "persuasion" with a thesis and examples. Increased expectations and teacher guidance creates the difference between grades.
These numerous prompts facilitate differentiated success. It's just a matter of matching the prompt to the students' needs.
