I'm teaching a creative writing after-school class, and while I have projects and some activities from previous lessons/camps, I don't have very many games. While it won't be a game-based class, I still think it would be fun for students to play storytelling-based games.
These are the few I've come up with:
- Mafia (I don't think I'll have enough students for this, unfortunately)
- Madlibs (more of an activity, I guess, but quite fun)
- Silly Stories (exchanging the story after each line, also not really a game, though)
- something with Story Cubes
- "Foreign Movie Dubbing" (from "Whose Line is It Anyway?" - 2 students act and speak in gibberish, while 2 students "translate" what they're saying, and a story unfolds)
- a Balderdash-style game where you show the students a picture, they write a sentence or two about what happened to create that strange situation, then you present all the stories (including the true one) and students guess which is true, getting points if others choose their made-up story
- a book summary version of Cards Against Humanity (i.e. A(n) __________ Goes on an Adventure in _________)
[does smth like this already exist? Otherwise I can make my own]
Any other ideas / suggestions?
