Topic: Creative Writing

10-second review: How help students learn to write (and study) short fiction? Each person in a group writes the first paragraph of a story. Then pass to the right. Write second paragraph. Then pass to the right and write the third paragraph. Etc.

Comment: Sounds like fun. Maybe do it as an introduction to a short story unit. Might give students an interest in how short stories are put together. RayS.
