✏️ For students who are full of stories!✏️ This class is perfect for the budding storyteller who needs a little help clarifying their ideas and putting pen to paper. We'll discuss the elements and structure of a story, how to get the details from your brain onto the paper, and how to find and use exciting words to make your story POP. Students will be encouraged to have fun and treat writing as a form of play. This is a great, gentle class to introduce younger students to the concept of...
Students will have a better understanding of the parts of a story and the process of writing one, but also more appreciation and respect for their own ideas and creations.

Learners will not need to use any apps or websites beyond the standard Outschool tools.
While students will be encouraged to write about whatever excites or inspires them, this is generally a low violence, high charm/delight type of class. Below are my general classroom rules and policies. These will also be explained to students when we begin class! -For everyone's safety, and to ensure an engaging and social experience, students are required to have working microphones and video for the entirety of this class, positioned such that we can both hear and see them. -Students are asked not to use filters or virtual backgrounds-- though if there is an important reason to use a virtual background, please just let me know ahead of time that your student will be using one (no questions asked!). -Students will be asked to introduce themselves by sharing their name, pronoun, and a favorite book. -The Zoom text chat is set to "host only", meaning students can chat with me, but not to one another or the entire classroom.
