There was hardly room to budge when the kids all squeezed in for the first assembly. But there was plenty of space to think outside the box. Imaginations were free to roam as we talked about ideas then put some down on paper and transparencies.

Here's just one of the amazing doodles. I wish I had time and space to put them all up. They were so cool. Each student thought up something very different with the same starting shape. |
| And check out these fabulous drawings that were done by first graders in Mr. Leverentz's class. I must have appeared very tall to them as they sat on the floor. And the dragon is a Chinese dragon! See the Great Wall? And isn't that the coolest little snout creature? Wonderful! |

Here are a couple of my workshop doodlers, who helped to get us started making a story. The drawings they make become the main character in our story.
Can you figure out which story goes with this goofy creature?

| I hope my drawings helped to make writing fun! Remember, YOU are creative. Put your ideas onto paper and share them with someone today! |

Why not try out some of the activities I have right here on my site? You can find a list of them at fun stuff. Remember, if you want a great idea, have lots of ideas!
