Acting as writers and editors, students analyze high-quality fan fiction to see how changing a story's plot, characters, or point of view creates a ripple effect, then write their own based on a classroom novel or independent reading book. Teams co-create a rubric for high-quality fan fiction, use it to critique peers' stories, and design an age-appropriate website to publish them. At a launch party, students share the site and read their stories aloud. (View a related project video.)
