The second group (the control group) comprised 28  pupils taught using the traditional method inside the classroom. The two-group pre-post-test experimental design was administered to assess the Effectiveness of the QUAAR strategy. The study's results revealed that using the QUAAR strategy significantly positively affected the enhancement of English Creative writing skills.
