WRITING PROMPTS

A COLLABORATIVE SITE DESIGNED TO ENHANCE STUDENT WRITING SKILLS

Need interesting lesson plans to prepare your students for standardized testing?
Have you thought of using photographs as writing prompts?

The Southern Regional ETTC and the Press of Atlantic City have collaborated to offer area educators with a source of wonderful photographs published by the Press and selected as "Picture Of The Week" winners by Press Photo Editor Gary Shivers. These photographs can be used as writing prompts by teachers and students preparing for the ESPA, GEPA and other standardized tests. The accompanying stories and captions are available in this site as well. View the Thumbnails to make your selection of the photographic image you would like to use. Click on the thumbnail to see a larger image. After viewing the image, browse the available Lesson Plans or create your own.

All images and stories remain the property of the Press of Atlantic City and may be used for educational purposes only!

Press Education Editor Diane D'Amico and Press Photo Editor Gary Shivers helped to compile the stories and photographs for this site. Sample lesson plans have also been provided. These plans are available in PDF format so they are very printer friendly and can be accessed right here online.
You will need Adobe Acrobat Reader, a free download, to view these PDF files.
