Help students take the time to appreciate the many positive aspects of their lives with these fabulous February writing prompts for kids. What are some good February writing prompts? Well…
In February we celebrate two important events—Black History Month and Valentine’s Day on February 14th. The former is the perfect opportunity to reflect on our past and all of the opportunities in life that we’re grateful to have, while the latter encourages us to focus on love and friendship in our lives.
(Psst… Another important event is President’s Day on the 3rd Monday in February which is also President George Washington’s birthday.)
Wonderfully, in this month’s list of February writing prompts for kids, students will practice expressing the two essential emotions of gratitude and love.
Each prompt or topic asks students to express their gratitude and love for a particular aspect of their lives. From their favorite memories to their best friends, students in all grades will have the chance to think carefully about the wonderful things and people they’ve been given.
For some students, it might be helpful to write their expressions of gratitude and love in the form of a letter—and Valentine’s Day could be the perfect time for kids to share their feelings with those in their lives.
At the end of the month, students will feel alive with a new awareness of the joy, love, and gratitude in their lives.
