Collaborative Story Writing

In Room 19 we have been having fun experimenting with Google Story Builder (GSB). 

GSB allows us to work collaboratively and write texts in a group. We can go back in and edit (or delete!) other people's work. We can make improvements, or we can change the direction of the text entirely. 

Last week we started with a reading prompt, "Describe a time you were brave" and then let our creativity take us from there. Each person had 4 minutes of writing time before they passed the Chrome Book onto the next group member. While we were writing we listened to music about bravery to get ourselves in a courageous mindset.

We hope you'll enjoy 'reading' our stories!
