Stick around to see how sticky pages can bring people back to your school Website. In the tradition of "MadLibs®" - try some Silly Stories

The "Rest of the Story"

For this interactive example we are using the "age old" Mad Libs® style of writing. Younger students like the silliness of the stories, while being reminded of the parts of speech. Older students can be shown a more advanced "story" that incorporates "more advanced" parts of speech.

Note: this is only one example. You can write as many as you like - totally for fun, or to fit the theme of a current unit.
