Imaginative Writing FULL GUIDE TEACHING PACK (narrative) MOD C Craft of Writing

Are you tired and overwhelmed with the pressure of having to teach so many modes of writing? If so, I’ve got you.

Here is an imaginative writing teaching pack for you to lift and teach in your own classrooms. We don’t just go through the basics of writing like ‘describe the colours and the senses’ or random writing prompts with no clear links to the curriculum, but we go through some real academic writing techniques such as free indirect discourse, vignettes, metafiction among others. All of this in grounded in examining the work of Colum McCann’s 'What Time is it Now, Where You Are" (an HSC text) as a model example.

Whether you’re teaching HSC Module C, or running a creative writing workshop, this is a step by step guide for your students. They will feel academically challenged, but well supported through this step by step guide!

Perfect for teachers who need creative writing resources that cover the beginning, middle and end of the entire writing process.

What you get:

• An Introduction to good writing
  * A 14 Slide PTT
  * A concise description of what the HSC requires in terms of imaginative writing
  * The key techniques and stylistic features of Colum McCann’s work
  * Teacher notes to help you along the way!
