Today in media class, we were introduced to a brilliant creative writing program. This program is called 5 Card Flickr. This is a great program to use in the classroom, to help motivate students to write, as well as to spark creativity. Students will be given 5 images, and will have somewhat of choice as per their image selection. The idea is to have students develop and create a short story, incorporating the 5 images that they have selected. Students can get imaginative and creative. As each story will be unique to the student, encourage students to share their stories with the class.

I think that it's a great way of allowing the kids to be imaginative and creative. They get to imagine or think back to a vivid memory or important time in their life. It attracts multiple senses, as there is the visual aspect, imaginative aspect, and creative aspect. It's "brilliant" as you stated, and it doesn't seem like an assignment that would be daunting or something the children would dislike.
