Magister Educationis - MEd / Writing is an important aspect of language learning and a tool for assessment in Basic and
Higher Education across the globe. Learners need to acquire proficient writing skills to learn
and to demonstrate their knowledge and creativity. Given the importance of creative writing
in expressing one’s thoughts, emotions and imagination, this study sought to investigate how
creative writing was taught through the medium of English First Additional Language (FAL)
to Grade 9 learners in one primary school in the Western Cape province. It also sought to
observe and analyse the teaching strategies employed by teachers in creative writing to Grade
9 learners who were isiXhosa home language speakers, and who were taught all the subjects
(except isiXhosa language) through the medium of English (FAL).
