Creative Writing

Pupils may feel threatened by a blank piece of paper and a request to write something about a given topic.

However, with some inspiration and fun activities, writers gain confidence the skills to create originaly writing.

Use these activities to improve your pupils' writing and as tools to help you teach creative writing skills.

Once learned, the activities serve as tools that your students can keep using as they write in the future.
