Another of my favourite creative writing prompts. The idea was posted on the ETA Facebook page last year and after hunting down a class set of keys (BIG thank you to our school GA!) this has become one of my most loved creative tasks.

Meet the keys!

Each key has a cryptic message to inspire a story. I’ve been using these to build sensory writing; describing what they key looks and feels like when you first clasp in it your hand etc. I love this activity, the stories produced are always a cack to read! So varied and creative! A thousand thank you’s to the original creator 🙂
