Using Dungeons & Dragons to Scaffold Writing Instruction

Storytelling is central to the roleplaying game Dungeons & Dragons (D&D), and players who build and navigate in-game “campaigns” are essentially exercising their writing muscle. In this ILA Webinar, you’ll not only learn how D&D can be a powerful motivator for student writing but also leave with practical ideas for incorporating the fantasy world into your scaffolded writing instruction. Start a D&D club at your school or library! Find out more at: This event is the first in a sponsored three-part series ILA is hosting in collaboration with Wizards of the Coast.
