Most Dangerous Bridges In The World
15/5/09 - High-quality images of rickety bridges in a range of different places around the world. I will use this page of over 20 pages for describing settings in narrative.
StoryTop Story Maker -- The Online tool for storytelling
29/3/09 - "create multi-page stories, drag and drop clip art to illustrate your story, add text in dialogue boxes, create storytelling clubs with your friends, share your stories with others" Free, for the moment at least.
911 Writers Block
20/7/08 - "Dial 1 for Settings / Dial 2 for Characters / Dial 3 for Dramatic Entrances / Dial 4 for Dialogue / Dial 5 to Commiserate / Dial 6 for Verbs / Dial 7 for Calisthenics / Dial 8 to Kill a Character / Dial 9 for Endings" Many of these ideas could be used in school, but I would be wary of using the actual website, as I haven't seen every possible idea. My class will be creating their own when we look at narrative writing in September.
Stories From the Web 0-7 - Stories
5/6/08 - Some online stories plus a database of stories for Early Years, which is organised by theme.
Key Features of Writing Genres
31/5/08 - Diary, discussion, autobiography, letters, narrative and short story.
20 Basic Narrative Plot Types
11/5/08 - Basic list of 20 plot types - could be adapted relatively quickly for children's use. I will modify the language to child speak and add them in bubbles to my literacy display.
Mr Men World
1/5/08 - Great for character descriptions, biographies and branching databases.
Plot and Character Generator
20/4/08 - Gives randomised charcters and events for creative writing stimulus. I won't use this with children because some of the scenarios might elicit too many awkward questions. I will probably collate the more relevant and appropriate ones at home. Looks good though!
BBC - CBeebies - Stories and Rhymes from fantasy worlds
-
23/3/08 - Very colourful and interactive
