Savannah's Home School Writing Prompts


How it works:

1.   Review the prompts posted on Monday and select the ones relevant to you.
2.  Write a post concerning that topic on your own blog.
3.  On Wednesday check back here and link up with me.
4.  Read other posts by home school mothers and learn from the community.
5.  All of the blog hops stay open for one year.  So scan the previous posts, and see if there is anything there you would like to learn from, or maybe you'd rather contribute.  Its never to late!
