Story Writing (and Story Telling) Skills.

Here are some helpful ideas in high order story writing, for children (as well as adults).

Use dot points to help you plan what you are going to write about. The dot points become your writing checklist.

Take on the role/s of your character/s.

In describing things use plenty of detail, make it interesting and exciting.

Be colourful.

Even use a picture to help describe the story. (As the saying goes 'a picture can tell 1000 words').

Use humour, where applicable, to describe an event/events.

Expressing yourself, your feelings, your likes, dislikes and using your imagination goes a long way to make writing, acting, writing about the role of the character/s a whole heap of fun!

Have fun in your writing and story telling experiences.

When you think you are almost done, re-read what you have written. It usually happens that you add more, as an after thought. New ideas jump out at you!

Then start the actual write, following the story writing procedures.
