<p>My Thoughts: A Freewriting Journal, and its companion journal, More Thoughts, can be used in a variety of ways, but the main point is to encourage students to write and enjoy doing it. There are 74 journal pages in My Thoughts, and each page has a brief, open-ended written prompt and a colorful, evocative illustration. An additional 6 pages have no written prompt - only an illustration (a guitar, a ladybug, a door, pebbles, railroad tracks, a snail, a candle). All the student has to do is fill the pages with words, sentences, and thoughts - all without fear of a grade or lots of red marks on their words and sentences. At the back of the book, for each page/prompt there is a small space for you, the teacher, to write a very brief response - "Is this true?" "What a beautiful scene!" "This is really very funny!" The prompts include reflections on personal memories and feelings, thoughts about cars and digital technology, food, fantasy, wild and pet animals, love, nature, the environment, and seven brief poems.</p>

More Thoughts: A Freewriting Journal

<p>From the back cover: Bicycles...climbing trees...hiding places...wasps: These are parts of many people's childhood memories, not only for those of us raised in the United States, but all for people from all over the world. In this book, the publishers have gathered written collections of childhood experiences from places as far away and diverse as Mexico and Bangladesh. All of the people in this book have come to St. Louis to spend a part of their lives in a new place. In Old Stories in a New Land, they share their writing talents in essays which are amusing, poignant, sometimes sad, and above all, memorable.</p>
