No-Prep Group Story Activity

Chain Story — Single Sheet

Exquisite-corpse storytelling on one sheet: write a line, fold it back, pass it left. Every rule is printed at the fold itself — hand out one sheet per group and go.

• 1 activity sheet (groups of 3–6)
• Teacher's quick guide
• Alternate sheet with a second opening line
• Fold-and-pass rules printed on the sheet
• Black & white copier-safe

Works on: Collaboration · Narrative writing · Perspective-taking · Active listening

Each student continues a story they did not start and folds it away, so the group has to keep one narrative coherent across six sets of hands.
