Give students something more interesting to write about than what they did last weekend.
French Writing Prompts Journal: Volume II includes 61 thought-provoking prompts designed to build writing confidence, reinforce grammar, and encourage students to express genuine ideas in French. The prompts range from accessible personal questions to imaginative scenarios, cultural observations, ethical dilemmas, and more challenging reflections.
Recommended for French 2 and above, the journal can be used throughout an entire school year or one page at a time whenever your lesson needs a meaningful writing opportunity.
Each prompt page includes:

- A clearly identified difficulty level: facile, moyen, or difficile
- The targeted grammatical tense or structure
- A brief grammar reminder in French
- Space for students to record useful vocabulary
- A registre tu version in the margin when the main prompt uses vous

The included bilingual index allows teachers to find prompts quickly by:

- Prompt number and page
Grammar categories include:
Présent, passé composé, imparfait, futur, futur proche, conditionnel, subjonctif, and mixed-tense writing.

My own education history
I've taught French, Spanish, Chinese, humanities, and biology. I've coached tennis and baseball. I've advised Best Buddies, Creatives for Social Change, Thespians, and clubs I helped build from scratch. I've served on safety committees, sat on textbook adoption panels, written curriculum, translated documents, interpreted in real time, and once built an entire course over a weekend because administration needed something by Monday.
That course was called SHWIT: Study Hall With an Intellectual Twist.
It put the highest-performing students in the room with the ones falling through the cracks. The brainiacs tutored. The overlooked students were heard. On Fridays, we pulled real school problems out of a hat, wrote about them, argued solutions in front of administrators, and actually implemented a few.
That's not a credential. That's what happens when you believe every student deserves a seat at the table.
Before education, I spent 18 years in the restaurant industry. That world taught me how to read a room, communicate under pressure, and find the right word at the right moment. It turns out those skills matter just as much in a classroom as anything listed on a credential.
Gradeness is built from all of it. The classroom, the coaching, the clubs, the languages, and the course built over a weekend because someone needed it.
Practical. Purposeful.
Built for teachers who are still in it because they care. That's who this store is for.
By the way, my wife still doesn't know exactly how many languages I speak. I've stopped counting, too.
