4th grade kids have started entering in Shiver and Fears new contest: It's called The Shiver and Fears Madlib contest. Kids will choose between 4 different MADLIBS I've created and have them read on youtube.
The most popular one now is "The Mystery Shadow". Here's the original story:
He didn't know a shadow was behind him. Until he walked down the dark alley outside the school. He started to run as the sound of moaning made his heart pound. He turned around, all he saw was a tall shadow. He ran faster, but could not escape the shadow. He tripped on a rock and landed on his shoulder. The shadow laughed as his hand gripped him by his shirt. He wanted to scream, but his scream was silent!
Now when the 4th graders start including their own words, some pronouns might have to change. I'm aware of that. And it might not be that scary in the end, or make a lot of sense. That fine. They aren't really for scarying, just for laughs and giggles.
If you want he hear these stories being read, go to Shiver and Fears youtube page > here< to be exact! Right now we're starting off with our first two entries with their choice "Ghost Eyes". See if you can figure out which words were replaced in this story. Does it make you shiver or just laugh? If you don't comment on the blog, comment on the videos!
