WRITING STORIES IN ENGLISH

Writing a story in a language that is not yours requires preparation. It needs A PLAN! 

So here you are some tips that will help you to plan your own writing:

1) Find key vocabulary

2) Make a plan

3) Write a draft

4) Write your story on a paper for your teacher.

1) Find key vocabulary:

See the pictures and think on 3 or 4 words connected with each picture. This will help you to get some ideas.

2) Make a plan:

Stories have a beginning, a middle part and an ending. As there are three parts and three pictures, you can use the first image as the beginning, the second one as the middle and the third picture as the end.

• Beginning: man got up and yawned, favourite pyjamas
• Middle: was very hungry, opened the fridge, fridge empty, man was sad
• End: had to go to a cafe, bought breakfast...

3) Write a draft: 

Get any paper and start writing your ideas. This paper will help you to organise what you want to write, change your ideas, cross them out.... etc.  

Stories are written in past and you have to give fluency to your text using link words or expressions as: first, second, one day, next, later, and, also, finally, at the end... and so on. 

Check the spelling and the grammar when you finish!

4) Write your story for your teacher:

Once you feel confident about your story, rewrite in a clean paper.

HAVE A NICE DAY!!
