INSTRUCTIONS:  

  1. Choose a stone. Decide if you want to make it a character or a setting stone.

  2. For character stones, use the markers and/or paper scraps to depict a person, animal, alien, or any other character you can think of on your rock.

  3. Do the same for setting stones. Think of the location where your story might take place. Is it the playground? The forest? Outer space?
