 Re: Any ideas in teaching writing?
Have you tried writing a class story together? That way you can help re-frame their ideas into sentences and model how a story gets put together. I would stick with story themes that are familiar to them and discuss beginnings, story development, characters, endings etc when you feel they can cope with the concepts. Just being told to write something is actually incredibly difficult if you haven't had lots of practice; children need masses of help with ideas and lots of modelling, even when English is their first language.
