Australian Identity (The Bushfire Starters)
April 20th, 2009 by christo
This story (Senior Voices Page) is centred on two young teenagers who make the foolish mistake of playing with fire, their fleeing and their capture. The story was written with the hope that it may shine light on the consequences of one’s actions including the devastating damage they can have on not only their surroundings and those within, but them themselves. For this reason, it is suggested that the story be read by people of all age as mistakes and consequences are not limited to any specific age group.

Creative Writing
March 22nd, 2009 by christo
If a student ever approaches you with a desire to write a novel, to publish their writing or to find out how to go about doing so, then take the time to encourage them and try to put them on the right path. This was the case with the writer of “Phantom Magyk-Journey of The Soul” which you’ll find on the “Creative Voices” page. Who knows where this first step will lead him in the literary world. I also suggested that he visit a site recommended on my own website Christo’s Lucky Dip Links which contains useful tips for both effective writing and publishing, http://fictionwriting.about.com/?once=true

Free Writing
February 22nd, 2009 by christo
Some of the best writing from students can occur when so many of the restrictions we teachers are apt to impose are removed. Often it is enough just to let students put pen to paper and write on topics which suit them. On the free writing page on this blog you’ll see some examples. All that was provided were topics, some of which were creative while other topics asked the students to put forward their opinions or argue a particular case. There weren’t even any length limits. It’s a great way to see where your students are at the start of the year too. Check the examples out on the following link;
