..........................Unwritten Stories........................... This section is really rather strange. I've created pictures with accompanying captions and some questions. You can use these to help young authors build a real story. The best way to do this is to have them dictate while you write it verbatim. Then they can go back and edit the crummy parts. I like to let kids work in small teams. One of my groups actually won a little prize for literature in their school paper. I typed it, but THEY wrote it.  Here is an example of an Unwritten Story:

The Case of the Hard Boiled Holdup                or              Poached Eggs  "You're in a peck of trouble now!" they cackled. "No way! I work for the Kentucky Colonol," he crowed. Then they knew that without a miracle, their goose was cooked! Some Questions: Who is "the Colonol" in this story? Where is the man taking the bag? What is inside the bag? How will Sgt. Cluck become involved with the story?    Index  Storybook  Therapy    Cheapo      Trivia Tuning Into Speech   Rhyme  Artic   Unwritten  Stories       Plan          "B"      Home
