How can I use this in my classroom

Students could use the Scholastic Story Starters to practice creative writing as a warm-up, morning, or end-of-day assignment. Students could generate the prompt and make a whole essay about the prompt in a Word or Google Document. Students could even take a picture of their completed work and add them to a Google Doc and keep a running record of their writing warm-ups.

What is a Scholastic Story Starter? It is free?

Scholastic Story Starters is a fun way to have students write creative stories! The tool helps students create their own story prompts and provides formats like letters, journals, and newspaper articles. Students can even add a simple drawing to their story if they’d like all for free!

Can students save their work?
