Treasure Island: close reading great literature to help improve creative writing.
This is a great writing task based on a piece of close reading from a master story teller: Robert Louis Stevenson.
A writing task is set to write a character study in approximately 100 words and then the character description from the opening of Treasure island is examined with close reading skills. Notes are given to show how skilful Stevenson included so much in his description and then the teacher asks the students to re-draft their own descriptions using some of the techniques discovered in the close reading to enhance their own work.
