Do you need a quick, creative writing activity? This would be great for a “Creative Writing Friday,” a writing center, choice time, activity for a guest teacher, or for a morning warm-up. This activity is so flexible! Alter the length as needed, use it for a variety of grade levels, adapt it to partner work or buddy time. You can also personalize this activity to your own school by adding your own slips!

Not only can this activity used as a creative writing, it was also used to focus on a particular part of speech. After writing, students share with one another (getting lots of laughs)! Hand in for a quick assessment or share your writing with the class, a buddy, make a classroom book, or hang their writings on a bulletin board.
