The Impact of Picture Series Learning on the Creative Writing Skills of ESL Learners

    The present research aims to discover the results of the activities of creative writing skills on the ability of the students at the school level in story writing. Randomly selected models of a total of sixty students from the 10th A section were taken as a controlled group and a group of experiments is taken from students of the 10th B section in this research from Government Naz Pilot Higher Secondary School Khairpur. The data attained from the outcome of the activities of creative writing which continued for two months was calculated with “The Scale of Story Writing Skill”. The results showed that the skill of writing a story has a major variation in the students' scores in the post-test of the group of the experiment and the control group. Furthermore, the activities of creative writing skills are helpful as compared to usual writing education in developing the skill of story writing.
