The pre-test and post-test control group experimental design has been used in the study. In the study group, 50 students from the fifth grade of Gazi Secondary School in Bart£¿n city center were located. The attitudes towards writing were determined by the Writing Attitude Scale. Creative writing success was determined by student compositions. Student compositions were scored using the Evaluation Criteria for Creative Writing Form. Independent sample t-test was used to determine whether there was a difference between the inter-groups, and paired sample t-test was used to determine whether there was a difference within the inner-group. To determine the creative writing success, student compositions were evaluated by two experts. After experiential studies it was seen that there was a significant difference between the pre and post-tests of the experimental group in terms of the attitude toward writing but there was no significant difference between the pre and post-tests of the control group. It was determined that there was a significant difference between the final test averages of the experimental and control groups in favor of the experimental group. In terms of creative writing success, it was determined that there was a significant difference between the pre and post-tests of both experimental and control groups. It was determined that there was a meaningful difference between the pre and post-tests of the experimental group in terms of creative writing success.
