A Love Story – Board Game
Write a love story! Choose the type of love story you would like to write and then navigate the board game filled with elements in order to complete your masterpiece.
Thinking about my own love story got me thinking about all the little elements that go into a good one. So I made a list of the elements that are a part of mine and used them in a little writing activity for my students.
