Here are a couple of lovely writing activities to do at home or school.  They are inspired by Greta Yorke’s book ‘How the pirates turned the tide’. These activities cover the CfE Es and O LIT 1-20a.

Listen to Greta’s book being read…

You can use this story as a starter and an introduction to an adventure story.  You can then follow the create a story lesson plan which can be found here: Create your own story

Or you may want to create your very own story from an adventure a toy may have in your garden….

Whichever you decide to share with your learners, we have created a Sway for writing two different types of adventure story.
