Welcoming Sidra Ansari to our family of authors!
I’m delighted to announce that Sidra Ansari has agreed to write 100+ Fun Ideas for Creative Writing in the Classroom‘. As you’d expect from someone who loves to inspire her pupils to do their best creative writing, Sidra has chosen some wonderfully creative headings for her activities. Some of my favourites are: They get caught in a thunderstorm, Character trait swap and Give your character a snake! I can’t wait to read the manuscript, Sidra.
