Writing Scary Stories with Quiver .....

Writing Scary Stories with Quiver .....

It's October and it's time for scary and spooky stories.  Why not spark your student's creativity with Quiver's augmented pumpkin coloring sheet and turn it into a scary story writing prompt.  Below there are some writing prompts that might help spark that scary story in your students.  I even have a "How to Write a Scary Story" brainstorm worksheet to help organize students' thoughts.   Using Quiver's pumpkin sheet have students use the sheet to design one of their characters for their story.

After students have written their scary stories have them record their voice telling the story via the Quiver app.  Quiver has built in a video clip recorder as well as an audio recorder.  Students can interact with the pumpkin character while they record their scary story.  While they are recording their scary story they can tap on their pumpkin character to include sound effects.

There are several ways to share your students' scary stories.  You could upload their video clips to your classroom website, classroom Facebook, classroom Instagram, classroom Youtube channel, etc... Once they are online you can create a QR Code to redirect people to the stories.  You could post the students' pumpkins on a bulletin board along with each QR Code.  How ever you share them your students will love listening to each others scary stories.
