Reflective Writing Task

This is always an activity my kids enjoy.   It can be done as often as you like... once a week, every day etc.  It's also a great open-ended activity that children of various ages can do.

Ask your child to write about something they have done or what they liked most that day or that week.

Some questions or prompts you could use to help get your child started include:
What did you do?
Where did you go?
Who did you see?
How did it make you feel?
What was the best part?

Younger children will require assistance with the writing, however they will still get enjoyment from illustrating their 'story'.

 

We often do this in the school holidays and the kids often flick back through the pages and say things like "Oh yeah, I loved doing that".  It's a great momento!

For the beginning writer, this Storytelling Paper Pad is great as each page is divided into two areas, one for writing and one for illustrating.
