Write to the Core - Writing Prompts and Story Starters for the Beginning Writer

Write to the Core is designed to help beginning writers use technology to communicate in writing. Users are able to express their thoughts with the help of partially pre-written sentences called sentence frames. The sentence frames guide students through the steps of writing a paragraph so they can experience early success in formulating their thoughts within a proper writing structure. Although this is designed for 1st grade students, beginning English writers of any age can benefit from the guidance provided by the pre-established writing structure.

Teachers can use the customize feature in this app to pre-write sentence frames based on writing prompts aligned with class curriculum. For instance, a teacher may better direct students to write about paragraphs on animals found in Costa Rica, their response to the book "A Tiny Seed", or the 5 senses.

Kids can email and print their final work. Work can also be saved to Dropbox for editing later in a text editor. Help kids learn the essentials of writing and gain confidence by using this teacher-designed app!
