October Writing Prompt Calendar

This month’s calendar is full of autumn-themed writing prompts with some creative story-starters included.

Each month we are offering writing prompts (you will be able to find them all on the main Homeschool Writing Prompts page), and you can download our October-themed starters here.

Ideas for use:

Print as many as you need so each child can have a copy for their notebooks
Hang a copy on the wall
Laminate a copy for reuse each year (you can mark the prompts with dry erase marker as you use them)
Use in order or let kids skip around

Our downloads feature white backgrounds and go light on color decorations to help you save ink.

This is a subscriber download.

  Hi Lissa – I think you will find that Special Needs Homeschooling is a good place to start. THSM doesn’t have much information for homeschooling children with special needs, but Special Needs Homeschooling has a long history of helping parents of special needs kids with homeschooling ideas and tips. Best wishes to you and your child.
