Fighting Words Workshop

24th Oct 2024

All three 3rd Classes in St. Marnock’s are so lucky to have been selected to attend a Fighting Words creative writing workshop in 2024-2025.  Ms. O’Dowd’s class were the first to attend just before the Halloween break!

The facilitators were amazing but so were the boys and girls from St. Marnock’s!  Everyone used their imagination, creativity, motivation and ideas, and working together Ms. O’Dowd’s class wrote a story called Rat and Mouse: The Trip to the Cheese Mountains. They also created their own individual stories.

The workshops were a great experience of narrative in English writing - we have already learned about characters, settings and plots. We also know what authors, illustrators and editors do for their work!

Rat and Mouse: The Trip to the Cheese Mountains will be published on the Fighting Words website so take a look there if you want to find out what happens…
