Second Grade Writing Prompts #9:This collection of second grade writing prompts focuses on a major addition to the lives of children that we never had growing up: the Internet. Back in the day, having to use libraries and look things up in books was the only way that research and learning could be done outside of school. Nowadays, it can be achieved with the click of a button and as a result, there is much yet to be written by our wonderful children about this massive world development. You may notice that the numbers on this page do not start at 1 and work their way up. This is because these 10 second grade writing prompts are an excerpt from my book, 500 Writing Prompts for Kids: First Grade through Fifth Grade. If you like these free samples, the full version is available in both digital and paperback form. Second Grade Writing Prompts #9: The Internet261.
