The School Without Teachers

What would a day in school be like if the students ran the show instead of teachers?

With this writing prompt, the children will explore what happens when traditional roles are reversed and they become the authority figure instead. They can explore how they would plan the day, how they would manage other students, and what rules they might change. This prompt promotes critical thinking about leadership, responsibilities, and how educational systems work, and requires the use of descriptive language to vividly depict the scenario.
