Summary |
|
The
beginnings of two sporting stories with a Commonwealth Games
theme. Story one has drop down menus for certain words, so
the children can choose from the various options, to create
a 'customised' beginning. Story two displays the first chapter,
and invites the children to submit the next two or three chapters.
The model of the baton in a relay race is used, with the story
changing hands from writer to writer, as more chapters are
added |
