There are 12 pictures / gifs in this powerpoint, not including examples. The object of this is to give students a chance to be creative. They see pictures like this on FB, twitter and other social media on-line, so here's their chance to be creative and funny. 1. Students can write a funny and entertaining meme / caption for the picture. 2. Students can write a short story about the picture. They can either write something about what happened just prior to the picture being taken, what's happening in the picture now, or what will happen next.

1. Meme /
Story Writing Activity!
1. You and your team will have 1-2 minutes to
write a funny and entertaining meme/caption
for the picture.
2. Write a <quick> story about what has just
happened (or what happened just before / will
happen after the picture was taken). (2-3
minutes)
