Trauma, behavior, and classroom management can all connect to writing prompts, and daily writing can be a gateway to these essential classroom elements. As a Trauma Skilled Certified educator, I have seen how writing prompts can impact teachers and students. We hope these prompts get your students writing! It can be a powerful agent of change in their lives. Exploration and inspiration are two of the most powerful tools we have as educators to motivate our students. Writing prompts can even get them off their phones! It’s true, I promise!
