Writing Prompt Wheel

A blank page gets easier with a constraint. Spin the wheel, take the prompt it lands on, and write the first line straight away — the prompt is a door, not a rule.

Give it a spin — nothing is saved until you copy it.

For classrooms

Project the wheel and spin once for the whole class, or let each student spin their own. Removing each prompt after it is used means nobody writes the same story as their neighbour.

Combine wheels

Show a wheel of prompts next to a wheel of genres — mystery, comedy, science fiction — and a third for the setting. Three spins make a prompt no list can give you.

Questions about this wheel

Can I add my own prompts?

Yes. Copy the wheel and replace or add prompts; the wheel stays saved for your next session.

Is it free for schools?

Yes. There is no account, no subscription and no student data involved.
