Dialogue Prompt Wheel
One good line implies a whole scene. These prompts give the writer a single charged sentence — “You weren't supposed to see that.” — and ask who's speaking, to whom, and why. Great for teaching voice and dialogue punctuation.

Dialogue Prompt Wheel questions
Is this good for teaching dialogue punctuation?
Yes — building a scene from a line gives constant, natural practice with speech marks, new lines for new speakers, and dialogue tags.
Can the line go anywhere in the scene?
Yes — using it as the opening or the closing line both work well, and swapping which changes the whole scene's shape.
