SynopsisStory Starters is designed to awaken the dormant writer in your child. It has just the right ingredients to inspire even the reluctant writer or the student who has experienced discouragement. A story starter, along with its accompanying picture, provides a very buoyant jumpstart for creative composition. The student is encouraged to write freely, with zest, with boldness and far more abandon than he may be used to, because he is unencumbered by the usual constraints of more formal exercises. With Story Starters children write like they've never written before. Often a budding writer is suspended in the middle of an intense situation, and then is faced with the question: What happens next? This is his cue to expand and embellish the story as much as he wants. The action-packed stories and dramatic 19th century illustrations were designed especially to appeal to boys. Other stories are calmer. This is a big book only because choices are plentiful. Thumb through the pages to pick ones you like. Whether calm or exciting, each story reflects Biblical virtues. The characters are uncommonly brave and kind-hearted, gracious and generous, variously demonstrating respect for elders, patience, fortitude, or quick wits. Grades 4-12., This lively approach to creative writing has the right ingredients to inspire even a reluctant writer.The story starters are mini adventures that suspend a student in the middle of a predicament. ?What happens next? is his cue to write freely, with imagination and zest, to expand and embellish the story however he wants. To spark even more curiosity, each story is illustrated with one or more engaging 19th century pictures. The settings are sometimes intense, sometimes funny, sometimes sweetly domestic, but always pose a challenge. Here is your student's opportunity to rescue those in danger, comfort the sick, cheer the lonely, laugh with the ridiculous, tame the wild, and do battle for good. Story Starters is a non-consumable, lavishly illustrated, multi-skill level (grade 4-12) supplementary English course. Story Starters is designed to: -Replace dry, dull writing with exciting writing-Invoke sympathy for characters and encourage writing with feeling-Expand a child's literary powers
