US Grade 7 - 9
Beginner Level
This is a beginner level creative writing class, we will meet once for thirty minutes on Zoom. I will share my creative writing process with our class. I have used this creative writing process myself to publish multiple short stories.

This is the ideal class for students who are new to creative writing and would like to put their story ideas down on paper. I enjoy hands on activities and I encourage active participation. A worksheet will be emailed to all participants, we will go over the worksheet together in class.
Learning Goals
Inspiration for stories can be drawn from multiple sources. Students will learn the steps necessary to create their own literary works of fiction. These include choosing an idea, choosing a plot, setting, conflict, theme, and creating characters, writing a summary or outline of their story, and writing a final draft.
