Activity Overview
Around Halloween, all sorts of “scary” stories pop up. Let students create their own scary story with Storyboard That! Use Scary Stories, More Scary Stories, and Scary Stories 3 for a few ideas of kid-friendly scary tales. Stick with eight cells or less to avoid long and complicated stories. A fun, but challenging, alternative would be to have one student or one group complete one cell of the storyboard. Similar to passing a story stick or writing a class story, this will challenge students to make sense of the previous cells and then let their creativity go wild!
