This game is called "Pass a Story". My fifth graders love it, and I love doing it with my adult friends. Every one gets a lined piece of paper. Each person will get one minute to start a story with a title or no title. Rules: no use of anyone's name, or put downs. After one minute, call time (have a buzzer go off). Fold your paper so that only the last line is seen. Pass the story to the left (or right, you choose) and with that one line, continue the new story that you have received. Pass each minute, and then read all the stories aloud. If the students are just learning english, you may want to read them so that you can correct the grammar as you read. They all always humorous. You could give it a theme so that you get some roll playing out of it... |
