This is such a fun creative writing activity. This activity has students work in a small group to create a fun and unique story. They will be passing around their writing outline to their group of 5. The first student will choose a character and their characteristics. Then fold the paper down so the next student cannot see what they have written. Student 2 will decide the setting and then fold the paper down again. This will continue to student 3 and 4 where they will choose the conflict and the solution. Then the original student will get their paper back and open their paper and use their outline to create their own creative story. This makes the writing a little bit challenging as they try to create a story that was chosen by their fellow classmates. This can also be a super fun and creative way to expand students writing by stretching them a little outside their comfort zone.

Something for everyone here! Versatile, editable Father's Day cards, gift, etc. A craftivity that is suitable for every age, language and learning situation - all the hard work has been done!

Father's Day Cards and Father Day Gifts are hard to organise this year when many teachers are still involved in distance learning and distance teaching. This pack of 200 + Father Day Cards (or pockets) templates will hopefully make organizing something special for our amazing fathers, step fathers, uncles, grandfathers or special someone on Father's Day a bit easier.

I developed these Father's Day Cards or Pockets because they are thoughtful, can be personalized, are something a bit different and so easy to explain and share with our students when we are not in school. They can be shared as a hard copy, exported as slides or shared digitally and then printed at home.

These Father's Day Cards (pockets actually) can be edited to suit different situations, ages, countries and languages. Dad, Papa, or Uncle, Grandpa, Grandad - just edit - no worries!

• Simply choose a pocket template (several kinds and loads of choices)
• Edit the messages and instructions if you want your students to read or follow
• Choose what kind of inserts or coupons you want to use
• Again you can edit to suit what message or language you want
• Export the slides you have used to PDF, jpeg or digital slides and share with your students OR print a hard copy to deliver to them.
• The student's can print at home, complete and have a lovely surprise ready for Father's Day on June 21st (USA).

Some decorating and a few thoughtful words from the heart and the "card" is ready to go.

Several children in one family could complete these "pockets" and they would all be different. Children can also complete for extended family too.

This Father's Day pack can also be used in the years ahead no matter what grade level you have as there is a huge variety and choice AND you can easily adapt and edit them if needed.

200+ Editable Templates

Personalize to suit your student's and their families

Edit text on pockets and instructions to suit your needs if needed
