Superhero Prompt Builder

This worksheet is designed for students in Grades 4, 5, and 6 to build creative writing skills through structured character development and step-by-step idea building with AI support. Students collaborate with Claude across multiple prompt rounds to generate a superhero concept, then refine details like a name, motto, mission, and a meaningful weakness. Along the way, learners practice sequencing ideas, summarizing responses, and turning brainstormed concepts into a more complete, well-rounded character.

Learning Goals

• Creative Character Development (Grades 4-6) – Students design an original superhero with clear traits, goals, and personality.
• Sequencing & Organization – Learners build ideas step-by-step, using a structured process to expand a character over time.
• Summarizing Ideas – Students write brief summaries of AI-generated suggestions and select details to keep or revise.
• Prompting & Refinement – Learners practice adjusting prompts to guide AI toward more specific, high-quality creative output.

Instructional Benefits

• Teacher-Created Structure – Designed by educators to support writing standards and organized idea development.
• High Engagement – Uses superhero storytelling to motivate writing and sustained creativity.
• Flexible Use – Works for independent writing, small-group collaboration, centers, or enrichment.
• Supports Diverse Writers – Provides scaffolds for students who need help generating ideas while still allowing originality.

This printable worksheet helps students strengthen creativity, writing organization, and revision thinking while learning how to guide AI through multiple rounds of prompting. Learners build confidence choosing strong details, improving ideas, and adding depth through strengths, motivations, and challenges. Ideal for classroom or homeschool use, this no-prep activity supports imaginative storytelling and thoughtful AI collaboration in a clear, student-friendly format.
