Creative writing resources
Creative writing is not only fun, it also holds many benefits for your learners. It broadens their imagination and increases cognitive thinking. They might not initially agree with the ‘fun’ part, but they will soon discover how much more satisfaction they reap from writing than just vegetating in front of the TV.
We have a whole heap of excellent resources to help you. Take a look and find the ones that best suit your learners.
