How Do You Play Computer Musical Chairs?
This lesson teaches elementary-level students basic typing skills as well as creative writing. Have each student sit at a computer. Play some music. As the music plays, have each student begin typing a story. Stop the music, and have each student move to the computer to their right. Start the music again, and have each student read the story on the screen, then begin adding to it themselves. Repeat these steps until every student has made it around the room and back to her original computer. Print these piecemeal stories, and read them aloud in class.
