Elementary School New Year Writing Prompts
1. New Year Expository
If you had to live this year over again, what would you do differently? What would you do the same? Why?
2. New Year Reflection
Think about the kind of person you were two years ago. How have you changed in the last two years? What new things have you learned? Try to predict the kind of person you will be two years from now. How do you think you will have changed?
3. New Year Story Starter
Write a New Year story that begins with “Jenny squinted worriedly at the calendar. ‘That can’t be right,’ she thought. ‘It says January 1st, 1968.’”
4. New Year Narrative
Write a narrative piece describing your favorite way to celebrate the New Year. What traditions do you like to observe and who would you want to celebrate with?
5. New Year Expectations
What are three things you are excited for that are going to happen this next year? When are they going to happen and why do you have to wait?

6. New Year Reflection
Think about what happened to you in the last year. What happened that was good and what happened that was bad? Was it a good year overall or a bad year overall? If it was bad, what can you do to try to change it for next year? If it was good, how can you make the next year even better?
