Scamper is based on the notion that
everything new is a modification of
something that already exists.
It is an acronym that represents a
different way you can play with
characters, situation, paragraphs or
words of the story challenging you to
trigger new ideas.
Each letter in the acronym represents a
different way you can play with the
際際滷s 2, 3, 4, 5,
6, 7 and 8
characteristics of what is challenging you
to trigger new ideas:
S = Substitute
C = Combine
A = Adapt
M = Magnify
P = Put to Other Uses
E = Eliminate (or Minify)
R = Rearrange (or Reverse)
S (Substitute): "What can I substitute in
my WRITING process?"
C (Combine): "How can I combine
WRITING with other activities?"
A (Adapt): "What can I adapt or copy from
someone elses WRITING process?"
M (Magnify): "What can I magnify or put
more emphasis on when WRITING?"
P (Put to Other Uses): "How can I put my
WRITING to other uses?"
E (Eliminate): "What can I eliminate or
simplify in my WRITING process?"
S Substitute What or who
can be used
instead?
What other
ingredients,
place, or
time?
Other
material?
Other
Process?
Other power?
Other place?
Other
approach?
Other
sounds?
C Combine What
materials,
features,
processes,
people,
products, or
components
can be
combined?
A Adapt Is there
anything that
can be
changed?
What else is
like this?
What could
be copied?
M Modify,
Magnify, or
Minify
Can you
change the
meaning,
colour,
motion,
sound,
Smell, form,
or shape?
Can you
distort it?
P Put to Other
Uses
Are there
new ways to
use or reuse
it? Is there
another
market?
E Eliminate Can you
reduce time,
effort, or
cost? Can
you remove
part of it?
R Rearrange Can you
interchange
components
or patterns?
Can you
change the
pace or
schedule?
Can it be
reversed?
R (Rearrange): "How can I change,
reorder or reverse the way I WRITE?"
Example of scamper in creative writing
The original story goes like this:
The Beautiful Little Butterfly
Once upon a time, there was a beautiful
butterfly with purple and yellow wings.
Sadly, the butterfly was being held in a
cage as a pet of a little girl. The butterfly
loved the little girl but wished she had a
butterfly family of her own. Then one day,
the butterfly flew out of her cage and into
the forest to look for her very own family.
After flying all day, the butterfly landed on
a leaf and fell asleep. She dreamed of
being with other butterflies, flying high
above the treetops on a warm sunny day.
When the butterfly awoke from her deep
sleep, all her dreams came true!
She was surrounded by the most
beautiful butterflies she ever saw!
The words in red, underlined, italicand
bold are the words that are scampered

Practice/Ap
plication
Activity:1
Use scamper to modify the story of
Cinderella:
The class is divided into two groups where
group A will do the substitute, combine,adapt
while the group B shall do the modify, put to
other use, eliminateand rearrange.
So the first three letters of the acronym
scamper is done by the group A and next 4
letters of the scamper acronym is done by the
group B.
Then the learners are distributed the 7 work
sheets first 3worksheet is given to the group
A, and the next 4 worksheets are given to the
group B.
The work sheet will contain the full story of
際際滷s
9,10,11,12,13,14
15, 16 and 17
Cinderellaand the learners have to change the
words marked in red, underlinedand bold.
They just have to write the answer to each
worksheet, for example:
For worksheet 1
The learners who do not know the story, will
have to read the story understandthe
underlinedword in red and bold and how
they can substitute the word or phrase with
otherwords.
Next worksheets follows combine, adapt,

Cinderella:
Cinderella has a very happy life until her
mother dies. Her father remarries and his new
wife treats Cinderella very badly.
This stepmother makes Cinderella work very
hard but spoils her own two Daughters,
Drizzle and Anastasia.
The Duke wants his son to marry and
organizes a ball so the Prince can find a wife.
The stepsisters go to the ball, but Cinderella
cant as she doesnt have anything suitable to
wear. The Fairy Godmother waves her magic
wand and creates a beautiful dress and glass
slippers, as well as a coach and horses. She
warns Cinderella that the magic will
disappear at midnight.
At the ball, Cinderelladances all evening with
the Prince. She has to run away at midnight
and leaves one of her glass slippers behind.
The Duke searches the land. In spite of the
Stepsisters attempts to keep her away,
Cinderella puts on the slipper and is
recognized as the Princes true bride.
Worksheets are provided to the participants to
try on the scamper technique:
Now discuss and share the group work that
the learners have done so that they can
evaluate each others work.

seems that the only way to navigate the
uncertaintyof what is to come is to seize the
opportunityof change.
Hence, through the two core toolsi.e.
a) constant learning and adaptationand
b) Creativity and innovation, to create the
future as we dream of it.
In future posts, I will be discussing about
specific toolsthat can be used to better
organize learning, continuousimprovement
and innovation.
Below are some of my favorite quotations
from visionaries contemplatingthe same
concepts:
The illiterate of the 21st century will not be
those who cannot read and write, but those
who cannot learn, unlearn, and relearn. 
Alvin Toffler
Peoplecan be divided into three groups:
Those who make things happen, thosewho
watch things happen and those who wonder
what happened.  Anonymous
The learners will come across many creative
writing techniques by the end of the year
example:
Shared writing, mind mapping, 5 senses and
using drama techniquesto add details like
role on the wall and hot seat.
Identify types of poems; compose poems and
the journalistic six.
