Emoji Story Prompts

I struggle with designing and implementing interesting and effective classroom activities that are simple enough for my learners to approach and succeed in using their target language, English. As such, I have been exploring the simplest ways to evoke stories in the language classroom. Part of that exploration is described in my recent LLP playground (Johnson, 2025). In the review process I was inspired to create this game software in collaboration with ChatGPT. It is an extremely simple digital tool to prompt people to create stories.
