Your Story: An Old Toy Rediscovered
Imagine you're an old, forgotten toy stashed away in a loft – this is the basis of your student’s story.

The exercise doesn't stop at toys - what about experiencing life as someone elderly in a rapidly changing world? Students construct narratives around these evocative ideas guided by structured prompts and story plans. Helpful tips ensure good language use including sentence variation for lively storytelling.

- Beyond Fiction: Students can also practice non-fiction tasks such as diary entries, reportage, and persuasive leaflet creation.
- Voice of Inspiration: A unique blend of instruction with imagination makes this resource more than just another workbook.
Whether used part-by-part over sequential classes or as group work during conferences, it's versatile enough to find its place within any lesson plan structure.
