Journal Topics for Adult Writers?

Question:I've seen a lot of topic ideas for kids in school, but I'm working with adults who are learning to read. Can you suggest a topic for a journal entry that would be suitable for adults to write about? I would like interesting topics that relate to the lives of adults, something that they would enjoy writing about.

Answers:
Or you could keep it general, say something like 'what is the most important thing to you?' or something else along those lines. That way all the entries will differ from each other, and the adults might enjoy working on an entry that is really personal to them.

I also like the above ideas!
You could ask them to write about :

~their favorite childhood memory
~career/job goals
~anything about their family or children, people love talking about their kids
~what made them decide to take your class
~gas prices, most adults have a lot to say about that

I'm sure there are many more topics I just can't think of them right now. I hope this helps.
Their last outing or vacation
Have they ever had a pet? If so how did they get it or what was special about it.
What makes them happy?
What are their hobbies?
What kind of job would they like to have? Not what do they do.
If they had $1000..
What are their interests?
Have they ever built something? Fixed something?
If they could meet someone famous, who and why?
If they could live anywhere, where would it be and why?
If they were to volunteer for something/someplace where and what would it be and why?
If they have or had a favorite toy.
What is their favorite cartoon and/or tv show or movie and why?
Do they have a favorite place to eat?
Do they have a favorite kind of food? Like Italian or French...?
If they could do anything they wanted to, what would they do?
Ask if they ever took the Pepsi/Coke challenge.
What do they do in their spare time?


that's enough.
