The students will practice boiling their ideas down to the core details and allowing the reader to fill in the rest. This will also force students to become better readers as they practice inferring what the six word stories mean. The goal is to get the students to be creative while still writing a story that makes sense. I hope they will use as many sensory details as possible so that students can learn to describe things they taste, touch, hear, and smell as well as see. 

I have a Master's Degree in Writing for Children and Young Adults from Spalding University. I love talking about all forms of writing and storytelling! Writing prompts are something I have used many times over the years, and I am excited to share this particular challenge with my students. Pictures have a way of opening up the mind to different creative ideas. My goal is to inspire younger learners to discover a passion for writing and help them learn how to take the ideas in their head and put them down on paper. I especially love trying new formats (like a six word story) and picture-based prompts because you never know what creative idea might show up! 

宿題が提供されます
Students will receive one picture prompt each day. They will write one six word story each day in response to that prompt. By the end of the course, students will have 30 completed six word stories. In addition, students will have access to a single story in the classroom that we can all add six words to each day. 
授業以外に週あたり 1 - 2 時間の学習が期待されます
評価が提供されます
I will comment on any stories shared in the classroom. I will focus on word choices and descriptions the students did exceptionally well and point out any words or emotions that could perhaps be stronger in future stories.
