Once Upon A Time learners looked at what makes a fairytale different from an ordinary story and learned how to write their own, using traditional elements - but putting their own twist on the story. And they all wrote happily ever after.
Class experience
US Grade 3 - 5
In this class, learners will talk about what characteristics define a fairytale and how to incorporate traditional elements into their tale, but with a bit of a modern twist. Maybe the princess will rescue a prince stuck in a tower, or the dragon take over the kingdom and be the best ruler they ever had? Perhaps the Three Bears open a hotel or the Ice Queen sorts out the melting polar caps? Learners will explore how to plan out a story and use character development and descriptive writing...
Learners will look at: Planning techniques in creating a story Descriptive techniques How to incorporate the main elements of a traditional fairytale into their story and blend them with new ideas.
Writing is my passion and as well as majoring in English at university, I've almost 20 years’ experience in teaching English in primary schools (4-11-year-olds). Over those years I have worked regularly with groups of children specifically on English writing skills.
