Description

Class Experience

In this course, students will learn how to compile their creative ideas into organized writing that draws the reader in and keeps them interested throughout the story. The students will learn how to separate their main ideas into organized aspects of a story. During the first class, we will explore ways to use adjectives to make our stories come alive! We will talk heavily about creating a strong beginning for a story. The students will learn how to develop a beginning that:
- Provides a...

The students will learn how to structure their creative ideas into organized writing that stimulates interest in readers. The students will do this by:
1. Developing a plot
2. Choosing characters and their roles in the story
3. Describing a setting
4. Using descriptive words to make your writing come alive
5. Providing a theme that organizes the story
6. Working toward a interesting climax in the story
7. Developing a strong ending that closes the story

The students will learn how to use descriptive words to make their stories come alive and relate to the reader. (This class will cover narrative and short stories. Works such as poems and songs will not be addressed in this class).

The students will be encouraged to continue to work on their stories outside of class.

  1 file available upon enrollment I will upload an outline guide for the students to have printed out before the first class. They will need this printout to help them organize their ideas for the class story that they will write. 

For the class story, the students are free to decide whether they will handwrite or type their stories.

During the first three classes, the students will be working on a story that they will write for the class. The students will be required to send this stories to me for assessment between the third and fourth class. I will go over the rubric with the students during each class and will make it available for them to access. In the final class, the students will present their stories to the class and receive peer feedback.

3 hours 20 minutes per week in class, and maybe some time outside of class.
