In language arts, students were working on a creative writing project. Each student viewed the same picture, one from the Harris Burdick collection, and wrote down details they saw. Using those details, students were asked to create a spooky story to share with the class. The stories needed to include a beginning, middle, and an end. We also encouraged students to incorporate smiley face tricks to spice up the story.
On Thursday morning, students volunteered to share their stories. It was a great way for students to show of a style of writing that they don't always have a chance to create.
