Have you ever wondered about the life of the tooth fairy? Is there only one, or are there more than one? Just how do they keep all those loose teeth straight? Let's get creative and write about it! In this course, students will be assigned random story elements based on the roll of a die. These include the main character, the setting, the main character's goal and conflict, and the resolution. Each student will then write their own unique teeny-tiny tooth fairy tale. In addition to being ridiculously fun, this lesson will strengthen students' story-writing skills.
Learning Goals
Students will review elements of a story in a fun way.
Students will write a creative short story based on randomly assigned elements.
