iOS Writing Prompts

iOS Writing Prompts

Writing Prompts seems to have been a recurring conversation on twitter
recently so I wanted to investigate what was available for teachers. I
was surprised to see just how many apps designed for writing prompts
there were. What is nice, is how many of these can be used for all
grades. I really like the interface of some of these and I think your
kids will too. Find a couple that will suit your students and your
teaching style. Please list any more that you know of in the comments.
