| Ready-to-Go Writing Narrative Text provides teachers with a systematic framework for encouraging students to write interesting and imaginative stories. This book contains a wide range of activities and ideas for a meaningful writing program.
People all over the world are storytellers. Everyday, everywhere, there are people telling their stories, relating personal histories, recalling events, making observations, commenting, criticising and reflecting on life. These are wonderful, tragic, forgettable, memorable but always transient and temporary.
Some storytellers choose to write their stories down. These stories have a sense of permanence and can reverberate to audiences for years to come. They are read and re-read, are savoured and remembered, shelved and treasured, ready for a new generation to discover their magic. Underneath such stories is a storyline that demands attention, captivates readers, lifts and carries them on an emotional journey to a satisfying conclusion.
The activities in this book are designed to develop your students' story writing skills and to encourage them to share their stories with others. |
