Picture Prompts for Young Writers
Picture Prompts For Young Writers
Who doesn’t enjoy an interesting picture? I have used picture prompts as story-starters to encourage writers of all ages, grade 2 through community college, as well as adult writing classes. Emergent writers need inspiration and confidence. For those who are strong visual thinkers, images can serve to inspire and guide a story, be it fiction or nonfiction.
Below are a wide variety of images that were carefully selected to help this process along!
