A great option is snowball writing. A student writes a topic sentence or more, then the snowballs are thrown until a story is complete!

The purpose of the snowball fight strategy is to predict, summarize, justify, and think critically.  Teachers can adapt the strategy to their own

Modify the process to meet your classroom needs.

The Snowball Fight activity enforces writing, responding to text, critical thinking, justifying, and collaboration.

Since names aren't required on the papers, the anonymity of the activity encourages students to respond even if they are unsure of the “right” answer or wording of an answer.

Know your class dynamics! Is this activity too chaotic?
Students might get too worked up to be able to come back to focus on the content.
The act becomes more important than the purpose.

Have students write the answer to a key content-related question on a piece of 8"x11" paper.

Students then crumple their paper into a “snowball.”

Students throw their “snowballs” across the room and retrieve one that is not their own.

Open the “snowball” and respond in some way to the content of the “snowball.”

The teacher can then ask the next question, and allow the students to write the next answer on the paper they have, or students can continue adding key ideas to the original topic.
