Children can write - some better than others, of course - but they all have the raw materials floating around in their lives. This fun series is designed to 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 and help build important divergent and convergent thinking skills. As an added advantage, students have a end product of which they will be proud! 80 pages each. Appropriate for grades 5-10. Heroes and heloines are always of special interest to students. This excellent book capitalizes on this popular culture. It builds on the existing knowledge of and interest in super heroes/heroines, folk heroes/heroines, villains, mythological and lengendary heroes/heroines, and monsters. |
