Abstract

This experimental research aimed to upgrade the creative writing skills of elementary learners in private schools. It was observed that elementary students lack the capability to write a single paragraph in their own words. To address this issue this quantitative study was designed. This study has collected a sample of 10 students randomly and was categorized into experimental and control group. The pretest and posttest design was used measure the effectiveness of the test. The situational-based activity was introduced to the experimental group. This research has some limitations i.e. Not all public or private schools in Lahore were part of this research. The time and selection of the population sample are limited. This research is limited only to elementary students and might not apply to any other age group. The results show that this activity was helpful in boosting the creative writing skills of elementary pupils. This paper recommends that the creative writing skills of students can be enhanced by encouraging them to write their own piece of writing, giving students an opportunity to select topics, and introducing an activity-based teaching methodology. The teacher should discard the old traditional way of teaching English and should adapt practical approach.
