Ozge Karaoglu's Blog - Creative Writing With WordTamer

If you are looking for ideas to let your students build up their own stories, you may like WordTamer. This tool teaches children how to develop characters, write a plot and design the settings in a story. It teaches this,?in an interactive way,?in a carnival. You move your mouse through the carnival to try each step. My favourite one is the ?Capture a Character? where you develop your character by playing a game with the ducks. When you complete each step, you can print out what you have written or save it to your desktop. WordTamer also gives certificate to the students.

Some ideas to integrate in class:

This tool is a great way to motivate any age level to write and create their stories.

Students can use the same game on WordTamer and come up with their unique stories.

Great way to show how children can start writing their stories.

Let children create their stories, print them out and display them in class.

Teachers can create questions for the stories that the students have created.

Don?t miss the chance to visit this interactive?funfair to choose a story start and get tips with your plots, genres and characters.
