Class experience
In this class, students will work on their writing skills by creating a fan-fiction one-shot for 1 writing prompt. Fan-fiction is narrative writing where fans of a show, book, or movie write their own scenes and scenarios for different characters from the book, show, or movie. A one-shot is a piece of writing that is short (typically under 1,000 words) and focuses on a scene or idea about one, two, or a small group of characters. The class will be structured with a 20-minute lesson discussion...
Students will improve their skill on the six traits of writing including ideas, organization, voice, sentence fluency, word choice, and conventions. Students will be able to identify good character development versus bad character development. Students will be able to use a dictionary and thesaurus and know how to write context clues for new vocabulary words. Students will have a completed one-shot of their own. Students will able to discuss the different plot organization and work through which one would be the best to start their story.
Notebook, journal, or paper for writing down ideas during class. Students are welcome to submit drafts through google docs or email copies of written work if preferred.
Learners will not need to use any apps or websites beyond the standard Outschool tools.
