Do your students ever wish to write their own creative story to existing images? With the Write Your Own Stories series they can! The Write Your Own Stories each has stories that are pre-illustrated for your students to discover and create their own unique story.

I have included versions in both lined, dotted lined and unlined story pages for you to choose which will best suit the needs of your students. I did not include page numbers on any of the pages because I felt that it should be up to the students to decide the order that the story should happen. I also included story helper pages which are best used by letting the students have the story helper pages while they are looking at the illustrated pages. Students can fill the story helper pages out and decide the order that their story will progress in. This would be great in a literacy center or just have available for early finishers.
