"Ernest Hemingway was once prodded to compose a complete story in six words. His answer, personally felt to be his best prose ever, was "For sale: baby shoes, never used." Some people say it was to settle a bar bet. Others say it was a personal challenge directed at other famous authors." quote from the site.
These stories cannot be just headlines. They must tell a whole story with six words.
This site is very interesting and causes THINKING to occur. It has photos, so preview it before using it in class, but the idea is interesting.
