Introductory material on narrative planning explores story development and guides children to shape their own stories

Key features include:

  • a simple layout that will appeal to children
    • photocopiable material that can easily be used in class
      • a separate introduction for older children who can work alone
        • an expanded section on narrative planning with new content on character, setting, plot, conflict and resolution
