Design a Superhero – Creative Writing Pack - Character development - Describe a character
This 10 page Creative Writing – Design your own Superhero – pack guides students through the creation of their own superhero from start to finish.
Pages provide space for students to brainstorm ideas to describe their superhero, name them and think of all the details. They then have space to do a first draft with some editing tips.
After that, they’ll think about a plot outline and write a story.
Kids with limited ideas can look at the tips pages at the back.
This scaffold for Authors is a great tool for writers to plan out their scripts, screenplays, novels or any other stories with ease.
Have you ever thought about writing a novel for your students, your own children, or just for fun? Or are you running a writer’s club for older students? This tool will help you or your students plan out every detail of any story so that writing becomes a breeze. By filling in the details as and when the ideas come to you, you’ll have all the notes you need to begin your writing.
First, you’ll outline roughly what you want to happen in the story - beginning, middle and end. You’ll decide on a genre and you may decide on a working title.
Then, you’ll plan out everything you need on each of the characters who affect the plot - what do they look like? What is their back story? What can they do? and all the other details which are important.
After that, you’ll write in the steps of each character’s journey - Beginning with their normal life, following through 12 steps which will bring you to the conclusion.
You’ll then jot down any additional steps or flashback scenes you want to include and finally decide on the order you want to tell the story to give the reader the best experience.
This really is writing the easy way. Enjoy becoming an author, and helping your students do the same.
Lesson objective :Begin a poster containing facts about Australia.
This is a class designed to lead students to create a fact sheet about Australia, which will then be adapted to be a non-fiction text later.
It begins with True/False questions with fun facts. This then changes to Fact/Fiction.
Students then do a pair reading activity to find out some more facts.
They then set to work on their posters about Australia.
In a 45 minute class, they will just have time to begin the posters, so they could finish it for homework or in the next class.
A short PPT introducing the Be verb in the present tense.
Students practise using the be verb for different subjects and then shortening the sentences using an apostrophe.
A simple introductory PPT for the silent E. Students practise the short vowel sounds of CVC words and then the long vowel sounds of silent E words, with a short explanation.
They then practise reading the words with different vowel sounds and identify which words have which vowel sounds.
Three beautifully laid out and presented oral fluency classes following an optional competition format.
Each PPT will easily last more than an hour in class, giving students the opportunity to practice their language accuracy, fluency and pronunciation in a fun filled class. Each PPT has ten beautiful photographs to describe, 4 role plays to act out based on fun, real-life scenarios and 3 topic questions allowing extended speaking and expansion of an argument.
These activities have been tried out with ESL students in grades 4-8 all over China and have been thoroughly enjoyed
A fantastic 40-question money game in which students compete to correct errors in spelling, punctuation and grammar. Teams choose a question and answer it, and are either rewarded with coins or they get the opportunity to take coins from other teams, switch coins with other teams, or they lose their coins completely. The game will easily last at least one class period.
There are five types of question in this version of the game;
1)Correct the tense error,
2)Replace the incorrect homophone,
3)Correct the punctuation,
4)Insert the parenthesis ,
5)Insert the correct conjunction
This is a fully editable game PPT which will drive your students wild, so once you’ve been through all the questions, just replace the questions with 40 more of your own and you can use this game again and again.
This is the third in my series of English competitions for English speakers. Public speaking/ English competition to be used in school-wide events or within the class for confidence building.
These competition PPTs are elegant looking PPTs guiding the organisers and students through a three round competition. First, ten competitors describe a picture based on the number they choose.
8 competitors go to round two, where they take part in a pair role play based around a real life situation.
3 competitors go to the final round, in which they are given a question to talk about.
The format allows students to use a range of speaking skills, pushing them towards fluency and accuracy through practice.
A very simple PPT introducing simile.
It starts with a link to a video (song) on Youtube/Youku, then defines simile before giving examples, highlighting the structure and asking students to try to make their own similes with varying support.
A ready to go speaking competition for English language learners. Describe one of ten pictures, take part in a role play and give a short speech. Divided into 3 rounds. Use this as a whole school competition (10 competitors) or simply as a class activity.
In the first round, up to ten competitors will describe a picture. Judges will choose up to eight competitors to continue to round 2.
In round two, competitors will participate in a role play with a partner, based on a given scenario. Judges will choose up to 3 competitors for the final round.
In the final round, each competitor will give a talk on the chosen topic. Judges will choose a winner.
This is a spelling and vocabulary review game generator. it works with any words, so use it to review your weekly spelling lists in game form.
A very straight forward tool. Simply type 20 words which you want students to review into a list, choose whether you want a snakes 'n ladders format or a more generic board game and print onto A4 or A3 paper. Words are placed randomly over the board. If you want to re-order the words, press F9 for a refresh and the games will regenerate.
The games work as follows. Students roll a die, move a counter and spell or define the word they land on (variations would be simple, too - give a synonym/antonym etc).
Playing small review games often is a much more effective system to get students to remember vocabulary than simply giving them a list of words. The game itself will work in any language. Try English, French, German, even Chinese. The kids will love it, too!
