Procrastination

3rd Grade Writing Prompt #11

Worksheet Description

This worksheet is a writing prompt for third-grade students, focusing on the theme of procrastination. It invites students to write about something they often delay doing because they do not enjoy it, asking them to explore and articulate why they dislike the task. The worksheet provides lines for the students to write their response and includes an illustration of a frustrated character sitting at a desk with a “do it” sign, which reflects the common feeling of avoidance associated with procrastination.

The worksheet is designed to help students understand and express their feelings about procrastination, a common behavioral challenge. It encourages them to identify tasks they avoid and to examine the reasons behind their reluctance, which can be a step towards developing better work habits. By writing about these tasks, students are practicing reflective thinking and gaining insights into their own work patterns. Additionally, this activity can help teachers to identify areas where students might need more support or motivation.
