Unlike novels or longer works of fiction, short stories tend to be more focused and specific in their themes and narrative structures. They may be used to explore a particular idea, emotion, or experience.

In English Class, the YIS Grade 9 students created original stories based on culture and presented a podcast dressed as characters from their stories as part of extending their creativity.

Dhana, one of the students, wrote about a life journey of a Ronin named Miyamoto Musashi and how he found enlightenment in life. While Charlotte penned a story called Hung-Pao Full of Lies about a young man who is compelled to lie during the Chinese New Year dinner.

Well done, Grade 9 students! We cannot wait to hear and read more of your stories.
