Writing a story

A few weeks ago, Nicholas, my fellow P3 tutor, taught the kids about the essentials of a story (basically the 6 Ws), and got them into groups to come up with a story each, based on the genre assigned to them.

Here’s the fairy tale my 4 dearest P3 girls came up with:

Who:                Princess Qiao Mei and Prince Nicholas Alvin 
                          (thanks to Nick’s input)
When:              At night
Where:            In the castle
What:               Princess Qiao Mei and Prince Alvin had many, many 
                           babies.                
Why:                Princess Qiao Mei and Prince Alvin loved each other.
HoW:               They got married and had many, many babies.

Nick’s comments: Er… Girls, what is the problem and the solution? Too many babies?

(This account has been narrated to the best of my failing memory, but should not defer significantly from the original.)
