Story Writing in Brief
Composition Writing

 Composition writing is an important component


of a child’s ability to enjoy and excel in the
English language.Composition, in its most
basic definition, is the act of arranging the
contents within your frame to create an image.
 In the visual arts, composition is the placement
or arrangement of visual elements or
'ingredients' in a work of art, as distinct from
the subject. ...
 The term composition means 'putting
together' and can apply to any work of art,
from music to writing to photography that is
arranged using conscious thought.
 Composition helps the student to express
his/her views on what is happening in the
world around him, besides expressing
personal thoughts, feelings and experiences.
Open with a bang

 Focus on finding an initial


opening for the story that acts
as an invitation to read more. A
story start can be dramatic, an
interesting introduction to the
main characters, or an
exclamation which will draw the
reader straight into the action.
Investigate endings

 We all know how it feels if we miss the


ending of a story. An ending can take
the form of a moral point, an indication
of what has been learned through the
story, or a hint of what might happen
in the future.
Flesh out the
characters

 Thinkin-depth about the characters in


the story. Develop their personalities
through vivid descriptions, dialogue,
the names they are given and their
actions and behaviour.
Write it differently

 Think of different ways to make a boring


sentence more interesting. Try including
adverbs, adjectives, lively vocabulary, and
alternative verbs. Children and young people
can note down “effective” words in a writing
journal or vocabulary book.
Use a story
planner

 Think of the following key questions:


 Who – are the characters?
 Where – does the story take place?
 Why – are the characters there?
 When – does it happen? Time, weather, etc.
 What – happens to get the story going?
 How – will it be written? “I”, “She/He”, present
or past tense?
