This resource provides engaging paragraph writing prompts in two formats: a printed Monday through Friday schedule for a true paragraph of the week OR a flexible schedule with each task numbered. This format is perfect if you have a lot of short weeks or aren’t able to devote time to paragraph writing every day. In my classroom, we use the flexible version and complete a prompt about every week and a half.
