Writing Carnival A writing carnival is an activity in which a small group works together to produce a text. The first person takes a prompt and begins a story. They write for a set number of minutes. It then rotates to the second person, who reads what the first person wrote and then picks up where they left off. They write for a set number of minutes. Next, it goes to the third person, who reads everything already on the paper and then keeps writing. They write for a set number of minutes. It continues in this rotation before going back to the original writer, who then completes the story.

Writing Carnival Directions Write down the prompt assigned to you. You will begin your own story and write until it is time to rotate. We will do 4-6 rotations, depending on time.
