The Christmas Story Machine (by Alan Peat Ltd)

The Christmas Story Machine helps both pupils and busy classroom teachers to plan Christmas Stories (over a million combinations are possible...and thats no exaggeration!).

The machine has eight parts:

1 Opening
2 Main character/s
3 Other character/s
4 Setting
5 Dilemma
6 Random Language Feature
7 Objects
8 Ending

Pupils spin each of the eight parts of the machine (up to three times) to reveal a HUGE range of genre-appropriate ideas.

When ALL eight parts have been spun the story machine collates all of the ideas into one printable sheet which can be used as a stimulus for a Christmas Story.

Its NOT prescriptive - pupils can include as many of the ideas as they wish but they dont have to include all of them. Whether they include a few or every one they certainly will be learning a great deal about the genre.

This is the third in a series of Story machines which will cover all narrative genres. Check out our Science Fiction Story Machine and Fairytale Story Machine!
