About this resource
Description
A good picture can spark a great story. This You Write the Story Lemonade Picture Worksheet gives young writers a sunny summer scene to explore: a girl standing beside her homemade lemonade stand waves hello as a thirsty boy comes running up, with a pitcher of lemonade and three cups waiting on the counter. Children look closely at the picture, decide what is going on, and turn their ideas into a short narrative with characters, events, and an ending.
Students begin by studying the picture and asking questions. Why did the girl open a lemonade stand? Where is the boy running from? What will he buy, and what might happen next? Then they give the two children names and write their story on the eight roomy writing lines below the picture. This 2nd grade narratives worksheet works well for writing centers, journal time, early finisher work, or homework, and every child’s story will be different.
What’s Included
- One full-color picture prompt of a girl at her lemonade stand and a boy running up to buy a drink
- Clear directions that ask students to name the people and tell what they do next
- Eight wide writing lines sized for 2nd grade handwriting
Why It Helps Kids Learn
First, a picture prompt removes the fear of the blank page, because the characters and the setting are already there. Second, children practice the parts of a narrative, including characters, a sequence of events, and an ending. Third, looking closely at details such as the waving hand and the full pitcher helps students make inferences and add descriptive words to their writing.
Ideas for Teachers and Parents
Talk about the picture together before writing and list interesting words on the board, such as thirsty, sour, sweet, and customer. Encourage students to use time-order words like first, next, and last, and to include a little dialogue between the two characters. When children finish the You Write the Story Lemonade Picture Worksheet, invite them to read their stories aloud and compare how many different ideas came from the same picture.
