Curated and Reviewed by Lesson Planet

Find out about the books your pupils are reading, and toss in some creative writing to increase engagement. Young readers note the title, author, and illustrator of their book before composing a brief alternate ending. There is also space for other notes.

Instructional Ideas

  • Provide sentence frames to support younger learners or those who need more assistance with writing
  • Since the task of coming up with a new ending might be more difficult for some, encourage conversation about their books before getting to the writing task
