Description

These 9 digital and editable writing activities help teachers continue to build a community of writers.

The "Middle School Creative Writing" resource guides students to independently compose an exciting and interesting short story. Each creative writing activity contains a writing prompt that provides the important characters, the setting, and the problem. The students then take the story in whatever direction their imagination leads them!

Each of the 9 creative writing activities also contains a graphic organizer focusing on one of the following aspects of narrative writing:

Story Elements

Character Traits

Revealing Characters

Using Dialog

Using Sensory Words

Using Transitions

Elements of a Mystery

Peer Review Opportunities! (Digital Version)

In addition to guiding students through writing a narrative, each activity provides the opportunity to SHARE stories with classmates. This encourages the student writers to communicate with each other and improve their writing.
