Worksheets For Teachers

Home > English Language Arts Worksheets > 3rd Grade Writing

These worksheets will help draw the writer out of your 3rd graders. Students will be presented with a scenario that will stimulate their creative sides. We would encourage students to outline their thoughts before they begin to write. This is a great activity to stimulate writers to organize how they write and frame their overall message. Some of these passages will get the creative juices flowing for some and not for others. We encourage teachers to give students a choice of several of these to write. Students with stronger interests in a topic will normally write deeper pieces. Celebrate the differences that make each of your students unique and develop important writing skills at the same time with these worksheets.

Writing Exercises For 3rd Graders

Students at the 3rd grade level are struggling to express themselves through writing. As teachers we need to embrace this and provide them opportunities to get this greatness out of them. We should inspire students to write with purpose. With this in mind, we want our writers to stay on topic and learn to organize what they are about to write. The overall goal is to have students learn to group sentences well to create well thought out and constructed paragraphs. As the grades fly by, the level of writing improves for students navigating grade school. Your students should love reaching deep into their imaginations to address a hypothetical situation. "Imagine you wake up one day looking really different from everyone else. What happened? What would you do?" Questions like this form the foundation for building writing skills. With all of these worksheets, your class should move leaps and bounds ahead to be prepared for 4th grade writing assignments.

When children enter the 3rd grade, they are just starting to express themselves through words, which is why writing exercises are crucial at this age. Most 3rd graders are learning to put together words and sentences at this age and might even be able to write with some style and humor. However, kids tend to get bored easily and soon; they start looking at writing as homework.

You must help students see writing as fun. One way to do this is to develop several writing exercises that will keep kids interested. Children need to feel passionate about writing rather than seeing it as a chore.

1. Fun Captions

You have to ask students to cut out some pictures from magazines or print some from the internet. You could also print out the images and give them to your students as random prompts. Every day, get the students to paste the pictures into their notebooks and ask them to write a one to three-line caption that best describes the image.

This will allow students to use their imagination without feeling too much pressure. They can write 10 or 100 words depending on how much time they take and how well they can articulate their thoughts. It is essential to give them the freedom to write anything they want so that they can have some fun.

2. Finish the Story

This is a fun writing exercise for 3rd graders that involves the entire class. The idea is that one student will start the story with a small sentence, and then other students in the group will continue using one sentence each. By the end, you will be left with a complete story that all students in the classroom have written.

You will find that the end product is weird and funny, but this is the good part. The story will allow students to be as creative as they want and start to enjoy writing.

3. Storyboarding

Children usually enjoy learning visually than writing. If you find this true for your students, storyboarding is a great option. It uses several skills, such as writing, organisation, and creativity. You can also plan your stories from start to end with ease.

One way to do this is by giving students a storyboard with all images drawn beforehand. Each student will have to write a caption that best describes the image. This is an excellent exercise for kids who do not like drawing.

Another way is to provide students with a half-completed storyboard. You can finish the first two frames and tell the students to complete the rest. They can use their drawings and words for this exercise.

If you have students in your class who are extremely fond of art and have a creative mind, you can give them a blank storyboard template. This will allow students to draw what they like and use their words accordingly. The freedom they get during this exercise will help them fall in love with writing. You could give them a prompt, such as football or a sunny day so that they have an idea of what to draw.

These writing exercises for 3rd graders are perfect for jogging their imagination and keeping them interested without making writing seem like a chore. After all, kids are impressionable, and you do not want them to dislike something as important as writing from a young age, so it is vital to give them the freedom to explore and learn.

3rd Grade Writing Worksheets

Related ela standard: w.3.10.

In the 3rd grade writers begin to experience a level of endurance that they haven't seen to date. 3rd Grade students are expected to be able to use many different forms of media to piece together solid research papers. Students explore a wide range of writing genres at this level. They work with their opinion, explore the narrative genres and spend a large portion of their time with informative pieces. We expect 3rd grade students to be able to write strong thesis statements with well thought out supporting details and a solid conclusion sentence. This selection of writing worksheets will help 3rd graders with their writing style.

3rd Grade Writing Worksheets To Print:

Descriptive Stories - Use some really powerful adjectives here to help make it clear. Look at the picture. Using vivid adjectives, write a story about the picture. Include five or more vivid adjectives in the story. Circle the vivid adjectives.

A Day at the Beach - Toes in the sand! Add a descriptive adjective to each underlined noun to make each sentence more interesting. Use adjectives from the word box or think of your own. Rewrite the narrative story using your new adjectives. Change a to an if the descriptive adjective begins with a vowel.

Deserted Island - Imagine that you and your friends went fishing but got lost and found a deserted island. Look at the picture and pretend that you are there. Write sentences describing what you would see, smell, taste, touch and hear. Make sure to use complete thoughts and transitions to make your story flow.

Scary House on the Hill - Everybody has that scary house in their neighborhood. Tell us about it. Look at the picture. Pretend you and your friends are playing outside and the ball goes over the fence into the yard of the empty house next door. Continue the story with a middle and end telling the reader what happens next. Make sure to write in first person, using describing adjectives and action verbs to make the story come alive. Use transitions to make your story flow.

Write a Letter - That is clear and concise. Also the letter needs to have an objective. When you write a letter, it has a purpose. Look at the letters. Decide if the letter should be persuasive, business or friendly. Write a short letter to that person and make sure to include the main parts: heading, greeting, body, closing and signature.

Essay Writing - My favorite pet - If you do not own a pet, write about a pet you would like to take care of.

How to Make an Ice Cream Sundae - You will write directions to the recipe of your ice cream sundae.

Crazy Talk - Sometimes we need to change or add more to sentences to help them read smoother and quicker.

A Perfect Ending - Using your imagination, write the ending to the story. Use describing adjectives and action verbs to make your story interesting to the reader.

Cafeteria Adventure - You and your friends have the opportunity to make lunch for the school.

How to Make a Sandwich - Pretend your friend has never made a sandwich. Make a list of ingredients your friend will need to buy at the grocery store.

A New Playground - Write a letter to your school's principal explaining why she should buy a new playground for the school.

Action Stories - Using vivid adjectives, write a story about the picture. Include five or action verbs. Circle the action verbs.

Explanatory Writing - Explain to the reader why this restaurant is your favorite. Use the brainstorming map on the left to list the reasons why this restaurant is your favorite.

Quick Writes - Determine if you will be writing to explain, persuade or entertain. Answer the prompt in complete sentences and make sure to include reasons, details or reasons.

How to Help 3rd Graders Improve Their Writing Skills

The more that students are immersed in language activities the better they get at all forms of it. If you think about it, isn’t that true for most walks of life? Families should plan to implement this in their homes. Teachers can help by sending home a quick example schedule for parents. If they can put aside 15 minutes a day to just have a story time, their children would grow at ridiculous rates. Want to get a little more advanced, have students draw a picture in the morning of what was read the night before. Another great idea is to keep a family blog that they share with all family members.

Teachers can help in so many different ways, but we feel that it centers around the concept of being consistent and using a schedule. I would set aside time each day for students to write on something that interests them. I also find that having them review products or something they have done recently is highly effective for gaining their attention. Remember the main goal is to constantly keep them writing and enjoying what they write about. Your goal should be centered on finding them engaging concepts to write about.

How to Prepare to Write a New Paragraph

Writing a paragraph can be a tricky process because you have to stay on one track. There are certain rules that every writer should remember while writing a new paragraph. Below are a few tips for starting a new paragraph:

Know Your Content

Know your content before you start writing. Make sure your points match the ones you discussed in previous paragraphs. Irrelevant information will take your writing off track and it may also lose its meaning. Jot down examples, ideas, facts and figures in a rough draft to sort out the information.

List Down Linking Words

Make a small list of linking words to make the transition smooth. Most common linking words include: Although Furthermore In addition to As a result Consequently Moreover However Hence

There are a lot more words which you can use. Refer to the list before you start writing your paragraph. Sometimes, we are unable to think of words when we are writing in a hurry. A short list of words is a life-saver in such circumstances. Make sure you don't repeat the words.

Know the Right Time

Writers should be fully aware of the right timings of starting a new paragraph. A new paragraph is never formed just because the writer wants to write it. Always transition to the next part when one idea is fully discussed in the previous paragraph. You may also start with a new paragraph when your readers need a break. This is because excessively long paragraphs are considered boring by the readers.

The content in a paragraph needs to be written in a certain manner to maintain harmony. A basic paragraph structure involves a topic sentence followed by three supportive sentences and a concluding sentence. The order stays the same for all kinds of paragraphs.

Make sure your paragraphs include four main elements which include unity, order, coherence and completeness. Unity starts with the topic sentence where you have to stick to one idea only. Order refers to the way you arrange your information. It should be in a chronological manner. Coherence is achieved when sentences are linked to each other and there's a smooth transition. The last element, completeness, ensures that the paragraph is well-developed with no missing information.
