Welcome, aspiring writers! Today, we’re embarking on an exciting journey into the realm of creative writing. To kick off our lesson, we’re going to engage in an imaginative activity that will spark your creativity and get those writing juices flowing.
This activity aims to inspire creativity and encourage you to think outside the box by using prompts that trigger your imagination.
Creating Your Story Starter Jar
Before we dive into writing, let’s first create our Story Starter Jar. Take a moment to decorate your jar—make it eye-catching and reflective of your personality! Feel free to add stickers, drawings, or ribbons that inspire you.
Writing Prompts
Now, let’s fill our jar with inspiration! On the slips of paper, write down various story starters. Here are some examples to get you thinking:
Be sure to write each prompt on a separate slip of paper. If you want, you can come up with your own unique prompts!
Sharing and Picking Prompts
Once your jar is full, we’ll take a moment to share our favorite prompts with the class. Afterward, each of you will randomly draw a prompt from the jar to kickstart your story.
Writing Time
With your story starter in hand, it’s time to write! You’ll have 20-30 minutes to develop your short story based on the prompt you chose. Don’t worry about making it perfect; focus on letting your creativity flow!
As we wrap up, we’ll take some time to share our stories (if comfortable), discussing what inspired us and how we brought our ideas to life. Remember, the beauty of creative writing lies in embracing the unexpected.
Let’s open our minds and unleash the power of words together! Happy writing!
