Stories I Wish Existed in the World
BIG IDEA: Writers get ideas for fiction by imagining stories they wish existed in the world.
YOUR JOB: In your English notebook, write 4 fiction ideas based on current events or your passions. Write a part of each story. Write long!
Strategies for generating ideas:
Think about current events from TV news, newspapers, magazines, or social media
Think about your passions and issues you care about
Think about what's missing from library or bookstore shelves
Example from Mrs. Posey's Notebook:
I wish there were stories about kids who don't like sports
Fiction Idea: During English class, Adam could hear bells and buzzing and blares drifting into the classroom from across campus. His stomach lurched. It was pacer day. Adam's mind drifted back to last month's pacers. The back and forth, back and forth got him so dizzy and anxious that he threw up in front of all 38 kids in fourth period P.E. He had made it to the edge of the grass before getting sick, but it was still close enough that a lot of kids had seen the pale green of his face and his bent-over wrenching form.

Imagining Stories from Everyday Moments
BIG IDEA: Writers get ideas for fiction by paying attention to small moments in their lives.
YOUR JOB: In your English notebook, write 6-10 "Small Moments" realistic fiction story ideas based on real moments from your life. Write long!
Strategies for generating ideas:
Think of a person who matters to you
Think of the first and last times you did something
Think of moments that really mattered because you realized or learned something
Think about a place that matters to you or your family
Example from Mrs. Posey's Notebook:
Real Life: One day in 7th grade, there was a rumor going around that a girl named Susan wanted to beat me up after school. I was worried all day but nothing ever happened.
Fiction Idea: I'm hiding. I'm hiding from Ella. I'm actually at the bottom of the dumpster behind the cafeteria hiding from Ella. There's a banana peel stuck to my elbow, and I think I'm sitting in yesterday's lunch of split pea soup. What am I going to do? I'm not the kind of kid who gets in fights, and I can't hide in a dumpster all day. I decide to climb out of my hiding spot, scrap the pea soup off my shorts, and find my friends.
Real Life: The time my brother tried to run away when he was six. Mark packed my Barbie suitcase with some clothes and snacks. He circled the block several times until his shoe came untied and he came home for help
Fiction Idea: I could write about a kid who has really strict parents and gets fed up with always being told what to do. He wants freedom, so he runs away and camps out at a nearby park. At first, he’s thrilled, but then after a few days, he’s surprised to find that he actually misses them. Things get really scary when he hears suspicious noises outside his tent one night.
