What a fun way to get your students interested and excited about narrative writing.  They’ll be able to spend time crafting their writing rather than agonizing over what to write about.

These also make for great writing warm ups and seed ideas for their writer’s notebooks.

Alternatively, use a different one several days in a row to allow students to develop ideas during a sustained writing block. Or — use one every Monday and allow students to work on their story each day for a week.  After a few weeks, they can choose one of their stories to revise for their narrative.
