Jenelle Erickson's Jumpstarts

In my working environment we strive to spark the creativity of our library patrons with prompts that will lead them to think creatively. The following are samples of informal activities that a middle to upper grade young adult might use to jumpstart a short story or contribute his or her thoughts on a particular issue. Each example or tutorial is designed to get the young adult to think about literature or media and how it has an impact on their life. These tutorials or starters are adapted from Annette Lamb's [|Sidepage] Powerpoint Starter.
