These sites are Mad Libs and Wacky Web Tales respectively. They are fun ways to fill in missing words or phrases to create a funny story. To accomplish this one must know and give examples of parts of speech such as: nouns, plural nouns, adjectives, verbs, adverbs, and so on. I like to use these as "ice breakers," creative conversation starters, brainstorming tools and just for fun. Mad Libs are sold in books, but there are a few that are downloadable from the site. The Wacky Web Tales are available online. Hope you have fun with them.
These are really fun "ice breakers" for the first day of class, or when things get too intense in class.
ReplyDeleteWOW! That was great stuff. I am going to try these with my students. I think they'll thoroughly enjoy them.
ReplyDeleteThis blog is becoming a necessary stop of teacher resources. Thumbs up! Way up!
