Title | Activity Idea: Writing Magical Chairs |
Body | From http://marishawkins.wordpress.com Teacher and blogger Maris Hawkins shares this activity idea for writing: “I can’t believe that I haven’t mentioned one of my favorite writing activities! A few times a year, I like to do writing musical chairs. Students must start writing. Sometimes I give them a topic (today it was what they dream about when they are sleeping), and other times, they can choose their topic. I start playing music. When I stop, they have to stop writing and move to another chair. They read that story and continue it. I continue this for about 10 minutes. It takes them awhile to read and start writing. I also like to give a few longer pauses and shorter pauses. Students really enjoy this, and they love returning to their paper to see what everyone has written!” Read her post and other posts on her blog at http://marishawkins.wordpress.com/2014/11/04/writing-magical-chairs/ |
