StoryIt.com - Language Art Resources

Here’s a site than will be useful for both teachers and learners of pre-school, elementary and high-school; StoryIt.com is a resource center for writing in the many meanings of the word: from learning to write, to spelling abilities to more sophisticated creative writing tips and lesson planners for teachers and parents, this site is truly useful and easy to use. It comprises a variety of original content in many formats: text, printables, images, online games, lesson plans, etc. The site carries a variety of mostly original material, and also a selection of links to recommended activities in other sites. Interestingly, you can also use the site to get classical poetry, short stories and nursery rhymes to teach to your students or children, and if you are running a bit short on time and can’t take a look at all the material available, you can always take a look at the seasonal activities to see what to read or stimulate to write just by looking at the calendar. Because the resources available from this site are so diverse in topic and ability level, StoryIt.com can be a great source of materials for teachers of English as a foreign language, who’ll probably be very grateful for the variety of ‘story starters’, as in images or brief pieces of text which can help develop a story or situation specially created to practice on different areas of language.
