REVIEW:
Inspire your students to become creative writers with the resources and activities at Can I Have a Word? The site features four projects including the elements, the human body, the Odyssey, and changing voices. These four projects cover various areas of creative writing such as descriptive writing, conversational and narrative prose, creative character prose, and influential writing. Students learn to create these writing assignments by listening to new poems by such poets as Margot Henderson, Michael Rosen, and Valerie Bloom, watching stimulating visual presentations and participating in the classroom activities and ideas that are provided. Teachers will find worksheets and poems, classroom displays, teacher tips, and a link to download the Flash animation to their desktop for easy viewing in the classroom. Also included are profiles for all the poets featured on the site, top tips for writing, curriculum connections, and other resources. |
