Josh's Favourite Toy - One Scene Focus A creative activity that
helps focus on what happens at different points in the story.
Make and print a scene from the story or make up a new scene.
Select backgrounds for your scene before adding characters and
props. Use the buttons to change the position or size of your
characters and props. Add text in the form of captions, speech
and thought bubbles. This activity is featured in This is a
fantastic stimulus for 'familiar settings' story writing,
perhaps on a rainy or snowy day. The lead story passes through
three seasons, using the change in weather to drive the story.
It contains all the features common in this genre of writing and
provides a model for pupils' own writing. Supporting interactive
resources will help pupils focus on characters or scenes, before
writing their own stories. Included, are two snowy story
starters that use the same characters and setting.
