The research aims to improve the fictional story writing skills of primary school students within the framework of constructivism and narratology. The research model was structured as an embedded design, incorporating the qualitative process within the experimental design of the mixed-method research. According to the results, narrative elements, story organization, and post-test story writing total scores of the experimental group students increased. Similarly, an increase was found in the post-test story writing total scores in the control group. Although no significant difference was found between the pre-test total story writing scores of the experimental and control groups, the experimental group showed a greater increase in post-test scores compared to the control group. When the qualitative data were analyzed, it was determined that the experimental group students' awareness of story writing increased significantly more than that of the control group students. These results show that constructivist-based story-writing training improves fictional story-writing skills.
