SynopsisWrite a fairy tale with help from the Grimm brothers. *100 prompts: 34 Beginnings, 33 Middles, and 33 Endings *Answer Key in the back reveals the origin of the fairy tale prompt. This book is divided into three sections of prompts: Beginnings, Middles, and Endings. Each section works on a different aspect of storytelling and logical thinking. Think of the formula as ABC. Beginning prompts: Students are given "A" and have to come up with what leads to "B" and "C." Generally, these prompts give characters and setting, but few clues about conflict and plot. Middle prompts: This type of prompt works on the middle logic of a story. Students are given "B" and have to come up with a logical start "A" as well as a logical conclusion, "C." The conflict is well underway, so they have to unravel what is going on. Endings: Starting with the conclusion, "C," students work the logic backward to arrive at "A" and "B." Like a detective walking in on a crime scene, they have to come up with characters and motivations and a logical plot that makes sense with the ending. Appendix: This section lists the story prompt with its original source. Once students have written their stories, they can go and read the Grimms' version and compare ideas.
