When I Grow Up I Want To…

Help your child find an interest in writing with this free printable prompt! Simply print the free worksheet and provide your student with the sentence starter of, “When I grow up I want to…”

Next, your little writer can finish the sentence however they please. The only catch is that they must write as much as they can until they run out of ideas. Even when your child claims they run out of ideas, you can prompt them to add more detail by asking questions around the five W’s: who, what, when, where, and why? Why do you want to do that when you grow up? Where do you want to be when you grow up? When do you think it is that you become a grown up?”

Enjoy watching your child flourish as they write about something that interests them!
