Synopsis

Ten years in the making, this book of short stories showcases the quality of writing at international schools. The wide range of styles, genre, and voice evident serves as testimony to the remarkable variety and originality of these students and the reason writing teachers at international schools find it such a rewarding experience. This collection of writing comes from the pens and word processors of students from around the world. They have all been students at the American international school, situated on the consulate grounds at Dhahran, Saudi Arabia. The quality of the writing is an endorsement of an approach which trusts students to come up with their own topics and develop their unique style through trial and error, extensive reading, and the benefit of regular feedback from teachers and peers. More than a collection of short stories, this book also details the approach used by teachers at the school and the advice of a prize winning children’s author. A must read for teachers looking for models of writing and an exciting way of accessing the imaginations of their students. A SHIHvillage publication
