Lesson Intro:
Writing Steps:
Table groups will be given a visual writing response to create their own six-
word story from.
-this activity is scaffolding students to be able to harness their creative
minds more readily. Think of it as almost a test run, or brainstorming
activity. The group is working together to refine and edit these works
so that they can have more confidence as individuals with the same
assignment.
Groups will have a sheet of large paper to publish their final six-word short
story on. (Only used for the finished product). This story will be written in a
text bubble. Other groups will rotate around their peers tables writing text
responses about others stories. These can be inferences, guesses,
interpretations etc.
- First think about a big picture idea, what is the message of this
topic? Then start by writing a sentence not thinking about the
number of words. This may take a few tries! When you are happy
your sentence, begin trimming the words down by taking out
unnecessary words. This process will continue until you are happy
with your combination of six words.
- When you have the six-word short story, discuss within your groups
how this story includes the five elements and how.
After groups have fully rotated and commented on each others works. Each
group will come back together and discuss what was important from
classmates comments etc. They may possibly share some of these points in
class discussion.
