Program Information
The concept behind MyStoriesAndPoems' writing program addresses the fact that children often lose their way when writing.
This straying causes their wording to deviate from subjects they're writing about. MSAP teaches children to stay on topic by
writing about stories called Theme-Stories.
Theme-Stories & Theme-Story Poems Explained:
- Theme-Stories are MyStoriesAndPoems' short stories. The stories are labeled "Theme-Story 1", "Theme-Story 2", etc.
- Theme-Story Poems are poems children write about Theme-Stories. MyStoriesAndPoems.com also writes poems about Theme-Stories. These poems are added to the site as they become available with their accompanying "Poetry Designer Pages".
- When used together Theme-Stories and MSAP Poetry Writing techniques teach children to stay on topic when writing. Once learned, these techniques can be applied to almost any classroom writing assignment.
- After children complete poems about Theme-Stories they may submit them to MyStoriesAndPoems.com for critiques.
- Children may also have their poems displayed on this website.
