The students hear this sentence every time they ask me how long a story they should write. The standard answer continues:”How could I know how long the story in your head is going to be?” WebEnglish.se has collected enough writing prompts to last for each day of school. Never again will you hear “What should I write about” or think “Where can I find a good essay topic?” They are easily found at WebEnglish.se/5-6 and WebEnglish.se/7-9. Scroll down to Writing.

“Films are texts. They tell stories. They have characters. They contain messages. They can be used in the classroom just like any other text, but their visual dimension makes them richer than most other text types. They are full of unspoken contextual clues…”
