The Literary Dungeon is a low-prep, fully scripted narrative literacy system for Grades 6–9 that requires ZERO prior experience for teachers or students—including ELLs and diverse learners.

Designed for real classrooms, it keeps the teacher in control while engaging students in core narrative writing skills:

• Character development and backstory

• Story arc and narrative structure

• Conflict and resolution

• Narration and descriptive detail

• Sentence-level and paragraph-level writing

Lessons are structured, collaborative, and assessment-ready, allowing teachers to scale creativity without sacrificing classroom management or curriculum expectations.

Two classroom-ready modes are available:

• The Literary Dungeon – flexible narrative problem-solving with deeper student choice

• The ADAPTED Literary Dungeon – a simplified, weapons-free storytelling system ideal for younger students, ELLs, or classrooms seeking a calm, inclusive entry point
