ABOUT THE PROGRAMME
Great fantasy stories transport readers to places they have never been before.
The Core Skills & Creative Writing Club is designed to help children develop the language, techniques and confidence needed to bring imaginative ideas to life. Each term explores a different writing genre, allowing pupils to experience new styles of writing whilst continually developing their core writing skills.
In the Spring term, children will immerse themselves in the world of fantasy fiction. They will learn how authors create believable fantasy worlds, memorable characters and exciting adventures whilst developing the writing techniques that make stories engaging and immersive.
Throughout the term, pupils strengthen their vocabulary, improve sentence construction, develop narrative structure and learn how to create convincing worlds, characters and plots. Lessons combine explicit teaching, discussion, creative challenges and independent writing opportunities, helping children develop both technical accuracy and creative confidence.
By the end of the term, pupils will have produced their own polished fantasy story and developed a deeper understanding of the techniques used by successful fantasy authors.
