    EXPLORING SHORT STORIES Books 1 and 2 were specially written to cater for the needs of Lower Secondary school students in Singapore. The books' Key features are their excellent selections of stories, arranged by theme to help students link story with story, and their wide range of stimulating activities which encourage students of all abilities to explore the ideas and situations of different stories. A new feature of this Second Edition of the books is the inclusion of prize-winning stories by Singapore students at the same educational levels.

    The stories also provide opportunities for literary study through the analysis of character and plot and through the exploration of features such as tension, climax, cause and effect, motive and relationships. A section on Creative Writing is a feature of each thematic Unit, involving the imaginative re-creation of aspects of each story in a variety of forms. Many of these approaches wil stand students in good stead in studying a story selection at the upper secondary evel in preparation for the 'O' level Literature examination.

    But most of all, these two books were compiled to bring enjoyment and personal involvement into the study of short stories. They provide students and teachers with stories and tasks which are thought-provoking, interesting in themselves and have a direct relevance to everyday life.

    A TEACHER'S HANDBOOK is available for each book which gives detailed advice on the teaching of EXPLORING SHORT STORIES as well as guidance for assisting students in their own story writing. The Handbook also includes a selection of examination questions and sample answers to many of the tasks and activities.
