Description
Radical writing ideas for reluctant writers: Origami mountain
by Lee Kindler
One of the radical writing ideas activities, this activity encourages students to write a very short text to celebrate an achievement.
There are eight radical writing ideas activities designed to develop confidence in writing and ensure success. The activities are:
- Using the cut-up technique
- Write digital poetry
- Fun with X
- Write a meme
- Origami mountain
- Make a video photo story
- Create a poetry map
- Write with Google teleporter.
The activities could be used at the beginning of a lesson as a warm-up, as a break from more traditional text types, as an extension activity, or whenever students need something a bit different. They are designed to be used in the classroom although some lend themselves to visiting sites outside the school/provider.
Each activity has notes for teachers that include where to find examples of similar text types and ideas for classroom activities. Model texts are also provided, some are online and others are included as part of the activity.
