P4L have been using Talk4Writing to develop their Story Writing Skills. They have used Story Maps and Acting It Out to help them learn the story of ‘The Great Kapok Tree’ by Lynne Cherry. We then used the story as inspiration to write our own Great Kapok Tree stories. We used each part of the Story Mountain: Opening, Build-up, Problem, Resolution and Ending. We worked on each section as a whole class before writing our own version of it.
