Creative Writing in Class Staffa
Class Staffa used PODD books during creative writing and story telling activity this morning.
Each pupil had to choose a character, animal, problem, how to fix it and how do they feel.
With support from class staff they were able to compose a story and then write it down.
Everyone listened to Mrs McEwan as she read out all the stories.
Have a look at some of the creative stories below.
