Dialogue Narrative Prompt

Students read a prompt about discovering mysterious footprints on a hidden path behind a school garden. They then write a narrative that includes at least one clear moment of dialogue between characters. This activity develops students’ ability to write conversations using correct quotation marks and formatting. It also reinforces pacing and interaction within a story. The mysterious setup encourages creative thinking while strengthening fundamental dialogue-writing skills.
