PROJECT #16

Journal On!

Print Project

  • What’s it like being you right now? We want to hear from you! Grab a journal, or make one here, then respond to the prompts on the following pages. First we’ll share 12 prompts created in 2020, then 12 prompts created in 2021, but you can jump around all you want.

  • Teachers, here are some suggestions for integrating Journal On! into your curriculum.

    Parents, journaling together as a family is a great way to connect and share feelings —especially during difficult times like these.

  • STEP 1 OF 26

    For this project you will need:

    A journal or paper (fold and staple or rubberband some paper together for an instant journal!)

    Whatever supplies you want to work with. Here are some ideas: colored pencils, pens, paints, collaging materials (old magazines, scissors and glue)
