Tell your “Pixar” Story

January 15, 2024 by Keri Franklin

Tell you and your students CODERS story. Tell a Pixar Story.

Try out this form and share a draft of your story. Use this link with your students as well. 

Once upon a time there was ___.

Every day, [the students, the teacher, whoever the story is about].

One day ___.

Because of that, ___.

Because of that, ___.

Until finally ___.

After you write your story, take a few minutes to edit. Jen and I used this template to write her spotlight. She told the story, I took dictation for her, and then edited out the “once upon a time.”

This could be a partner exercise to begin or end a class. Tell the students they will be published! Send your stories in. We will edit, send back to you, and publish. Group of people working together at a table with another group in the background
