Jumpstart! Storymaking is a collection of games and activities to
develop the creative process of 'storymaking'. It focuses upon
'storytelling for writing' as well as creating a whole school culture of
storytelling, reading and writing. Storymaking is the process of
retelling, innovating and creating new stories.
Like the best-selling Jumpstart! Literacy, this book contains
imaginative 'quick-fire' ideas that could be used as creative warm-ups
and starters or developed into lessons. There are over 100 provocative
and thought-provoking games and activities, intended to 'jumpstart'
storytelling, reading and writing in any Key Stage 1, 2 or 3 classroom.
Practical, easy-to-do and vastly entertaining, the 'jumpstarts' will
appeal to busy teachers.
