Roll Your Way to a Creepy Writing Prompt for Key Stage 2!

Do your pupils have a case of writer’s block? Are they struggling with narrative writing? Is it spooky season yet? Absolutely! We know it’s tough to engage children today, especially when it comes to imaginative writing. They don’t seem to remember all of the different components of a story, or they struggle with generating ideas to build a story around. That’s where we come in!

Roll to Create Fun and Unique Halloween Story Ideas

This printable resource is the perfect tool to get reluctant writers in the mood to write a scary story! This die-rolling idea-generating worksheet will help your pupils create a fun list of story elements to use as a story starter to write their own spooky narrative stories. With our Roll-to-Create format, pupils get their writing ideas from a random roll of the die and must incorporate the elements rolled into their writing.

How to use this Halloween-themed writing prompt resource:

  1. Pupils roll a die and identify the corresponding narrative elements on the chart.
  2. Each narrative element is recorded at the bottom of the sheet.
  3. Once pupils have rolled the characters, setting and complication for their story, they can begin to write their narrative.
