JOURNAL IDEAS

 STUDENTS CAN WRITE ABOUT:
prior grade; a special friend; their pet; letter to parents for Open House; Grandparents; most valued possession; a time they had to be brave; a very happy day; something sad that happened; like being a boy/girl; three wishes; how they get ready for school; favorite animal; their neighborhood; when helped someone; favorite place; favorite holiday; a dream; my vacation; something that makes me happy; things that bug me; if my teacher peeked into my room; I think children should have summer vacation because; why I should stay up later; adults and children (cats/dogs-fingers/toes-rain/snow) are the same/different; things my mom teaches me; a riddle for the teacher
These are a few ideas for the younger grades.  Of course you have the students write about what you are learning also.  I always have them write about field trips, special days, holidays...
HAVE FUN WITH JOURNALING
