Word Tamer – According to Free
Technology for Teachers, “Word Tamer is a neat site for learning the process
of developing characters, settings, and plots in creative writing. Word Tamer
is set up as an interactive journey through a carnival of literary devices. As
students move through the carnival they develop characters, develop a setting,
and develop a plot for their stories. At each stop in the Word Tamer carnival
students can print out the words they have written. Along the way there are
videos to help students understand the roles of characters, settings, and plot
development in crafting a good story.” (L:E; SA:LA)
