Open ended stories

Hello everybody,
I �m looking for open ended stories for intermediate students. I �ve already searched the net, but only found one in bogglesworld (the woman that slept 30 years).
Could somebody please help me?
Thanks in advance. |

Hello Roald Dahl �s short stories are perfect for you then! most of his short stories end in an ambiguous way, so that you can ask your students to write what �s going to happen next! i �ve uploaded one here maybe it will help you! have a nice day! Elodie

Hi Heike,
For this purpose you can choose any level-suitable short story and "cut" its end. What I do is then ask my students to invent the end of the story, we compare them and I read to them the "real" ending.

hello,
let me share my trick, with the hope, it may help you.
i project such episodes which arouse them to talk more.. i narrate the episode except the endig. i give them the chance to think by giving such tasks initially in the homework. their imagination can go full throttle.
i think you can use similar challenges to your class room as per the need.
