Students will be provided with a brief backstory and list of characteristics of the Creeper from Minecraft. Afterwards, they will be shown an example of a short story about a Creeper and given a writing prompt. I'll play music in the background and give students time to finish their story, then students will have the opportunity to share their stories if they would like.

If we have additional time, we will be coloring squares with coloring pencils or markers to make a Creeper face, and we will look for Creepers in coloring pages from a book. 

I try to create a fun, laid back, non-judgmental atmosphere for students so that they feel comfortable creating and sharing their creations with me and with each other.
