Lead Students Step by Step through the Structure of a Story!

Written by Eleanor W. Hoomes, Ph.D.

Children can write—some better than others, of course—but they all have the raw materials floating around in their lives. Designed to save thinking and preparation time for teachers and to encourage planned creativity, the books in this fun series bring order to those raw materials, help students sort and arrange that which is already familiar, and use the results to create stories. The activities develop students’ abilities in observing, concluding, recalling, applying, analyzing, synthesizing, and evaluating. They also help build important divergent and convergent thinking skills. As an added advantage, kids will have an end product of which they will be proud! 80 pages each. Grades 4–12.
