Storytelling. Creative Writing - Ban Boring Words to Teach Better Creative Writing.
How many times have you sat down to read a student's writing and the first line is so boring that it's almost torturous to continue?
As elementary school teachers, our job is take ordinary student writing and give our children the tools to spice up their papers, adding interest and excitement through word choice, suspense, and other literary devices. Step 1 - Ban Boring Words ASAP Tell your students that, starting immediately, certain "blah" words that pack little descriptive punch are banned. The four more important words to ban are: "good," "bad," "went," and "said. " Other worthy candidates include: "nice," "walked," and "then. " Step 2 - Brainstorm Synonyms And Use Them Instead One by one, the students should work together to brainstorm more exciting and effective synonyms of a given banned word.

It was a meeting all about ideas (my favourite) and we discussed the best ways that technology could support the process of writing and drive the eventual outcomes. In this post I have included a list of 10 literacy/writing tools or outcomes that, in my opinion, teachers should currently be aware of. Many of them are basic yet still powerful tools in the classroom that support children’s writing.
They are in no particular order. In addition I have also included 10 alternative tools that either offer a different perspective on digital writing or are a little known tool, that may have huge potential in the classroom. 1 – Photostory – in my opinion one of the simplest and yet most powerful tools for primary literacy. 7 – Museum Box – Thanks to smilin7 for suggesting this one.
