Roll a Monster Story Halloween Activity | Creative Narrative Writing | Editable

Bring out the Halloween spirit in your classroom with this Roll a Monster Story resource. Perfect for creative writing activities, students roll dice to craft unique stories while meeting writing standards. This resource is ideal for 5th-12th grade!

Save 30% with these bundles...

Holidays and Seasonal Activities Bundle

Holidays Activity Bundle

Halloween Bundle

What's Included

  • Pre-Filled Roll a Monster Story Board
  • Editable Roll a Monster Story Board
  • Story Planning Board
  • Vocabulary Page
  • Writing Pages
  • Editable Rubric in Google Sheets

Directions

Step 1: Roll the Dice

Begin by rolling the dice to determine the key components of your story. Use the chart below to match each dice roll to the corresponding element for your story. Record your results:

  1. Monster Type (e.g., Alien, Ghost, Dragon, etc.)
  2. Monster Appearance (e.g., Glowing red eyes, Slimy, Multiple heads, etc.)
  3. Monster Power (e.g., Telepathy, Fire-breathing, etc.)
  4. Monster Weakness (e.g., Bright light, Water, etc.)
  5. Story Setting (e.g., Haunted mansion, Spaceship, Ancient cave, etc.)
  6. Plot Twist (e.g., The monster is friendly, The monster needs help, etc.)

After rolling, students will have a list of elements to include in their story.

Step 2: Plan The Story

Now that students have their monster’s characteristics, setting, and plot twist, they will take a moment to brainstorm how these elements will work together in your narrative. Students should think about:

  • How does the setting affect the story's tone or mood?
  • What motivates your monster? What challenges will the monster face?
  • How can the plot twist surprise or change the direction of the story?

Create a brief outline, if needed, to help organize your ideas.

Step 3: Write The Story

Using the elements from their dice rolls, students begin writing their story. They should make sure their narrative has a clear beginning, middle, and end. As they write, students will focus on the following:

  • Incorporate all of the rolled elements into the story in a meaningful way. For example, if your monster has a weakness to water, this should play an important role in the plot.
  • Use vivid descriptions to bring your monster, setting, and events to life.
  • Develop your characters (including the monster!) by giving them motivations and emotions that will drive the story.
  • Remember the plot twist—use it to surprise your reader and add depth to your story.

Drawing Art: Ghostly Self Portraits.

By Art Shack by JB

Need an awesome Art Unit? I have just the thing for you! This creative Ghostly Self Portraits Unit was designed to be printed and displayed as examples while you teach. Use this Google Slide file to display these beautiful images one-by-one on a large screen. It is best to use grey newsprint paper if you have it, but if you do not you could use white drawing paper (if you give the white paper a grey-ish look ahead of time). I used pencil to sketch everything out in student sketchbooks and on final copy newsprint paper. I used black crayon OR black oil pastel (depending on grade level) to first outline the major features of the pencil drawing. The older students used oil pastels. After outlining, white crayon OR white oil pastels were used for the self-portrait eyes, and a few other areas. Pattern was a focus throughout the composition whether it showed up on the person or in the background. I hope you and your kiddos love this! Enjoy.
