This book isn''t for everyone. It''s fairly, well, weird. However, we like weird, and we have found that most students do, too. "Short and Sweet" is a book of 28 reproducible creative writing activities. The activities help students stretch their imaginations and have fun with writing at the same time. Activities in "Short and Sweet" include: Endangered Pumpkins; 1-900-PIMPLES; and Tabloid Times.Most activities can be completed in less than a class period, with time left over for sharing. You can stop there or go on to let students complete more finished, polished works. For grades 5-9, but many older students will enjoy the book as well.
