Sharing Stories are great when used as an icebreaker, an introductory activity to creative writing, or simply as a way to break up a long day at school and work on a bit of collaborative writing. This activity requires minimal materials (just the worksheets and pencils). The classroom is often filled with laughter during this activity, while students are negotiating their role in a larger narrative. With many Sharing Stories Worksheets circulating the class, each child will have ample opportunity to get involved and collaborate with their classmates.
