Description
Class Experience
In this course we will use Minecraft as a way to hone our creative writing skills. We will create a character and setting, and explore how we use that character to advance a plot and develop a theme. I will teach a 'mini-lesson' and then allow students to practice that skill in the class. Week one will focus on character and setting, week two on plot, week three on writing introductions, and week four on writing conclusions. We will cover the following topics: Meeting 1- Minecraft Roll- A-...
Students will learn pre-writing skills such as character development, story organization, setting, theme, and plot development. They will learn how to hook the reader, focus and elaborate on elements that advance the story, and conclude in a way that satisfies the reader.
I have a Master's of Education degree and I am a certified teacher with over ten years experience in education. I am certified in K-6 elementary education, 7-12 social studies education, 7-12 language arts education, and K-12 Reading education.
Students are free to work on their story outside of class as much as they need/ want.
2 files available upon enrollmentLearners will need paper and a writing utensil for every lesson and a set of dice for the first lesson. I will provide all handouts.
I will provide feedback at least weekly.
45 minutes per week in class, and an estimated 1 - 2 hours per week outside of class.
This class relies on Minecraft, and Minecraft does include cartoon violence. Incorporating these elements into a story to advance the plot is something I will accept, however I will not allow using these elements just for the sake of using them. I will also ask students who incorporate sensitive elements to give a content warning before sharing, or ask that they only share with me. Any content that is concerning will be passed on to the adult who enrolled the learner.
