This book aims to support and develop creative writing activity in the primary curriculum, offering a balanced mix of both theoretical background and practical writing ideas. As well as providing detailed curriculum links to the National Strategy strands and outcomes, the book intends to provide teachers with a range of creative writing ideas for use in the classroom that are transferable between curriculum areas. There will be 20 creative writing templates for activities that can be incorporated into many different areas of classroom teaching. In addition there will be various exercises that will help develop creative writing skills, from creating an engaging character to delivering a satisfying ending. The structured and well-tested exercises will help to develop fundamental, transferable tools of story telling that will improve pupil's confidence in all areas of writing.
