The Art of Creative Writing - Rodney Marshall - Bog

Most children enjoy creative writing. It allows them a freedom to express their personalities and can be a therapeutic process. Unfortunately, it tends to be the one area which many teachers struggle with.
Professional writers research thoroughly before picking up a pen. Students need to do the same. This book guides teachers through the process, exploring a range of topics, from story starters, through genre writing, to how historical events and topical debates can be used as launching pads for story writing. The guide also contains vocabulary banks and examples of pupils' writing. Following it will result in personal narratives which children of any ability can enjoy sharing in the classroom.
