Description

Developing Thinking Skills Through Creative Writing: Story Steps for 9-12 Year Olds is a practical teacher resource that helps children develop essential writing skills. This step-by-step guide encourages students to tackle tasks of increasing difficulty, broadening their knowledge and experiences of various fictional genres. The book offers a structured approach to storytelling, covering key aspects such as narrative structure, plot, characters, settings, vocabulary, word choice, sentence structure, and punctuation. Each chapter is separated into distinct genres, with guidance notes, extension activities, and general tips provided throughout. This flexibility allows teachers to adapt the resource to their teaching situation, either by following a genre-by-genre approach or creating their own programme of study using activities from different chapters. Fully illustrated and supporting the requirements of the National Curriculum, this book is a valuable aid for Key Stage 2 teachers looking to support their students' writing development.
