Creative Writing: Narratives from a Visual
Class experience
US Grade 5 - 8
In this creative writing class, every week students will see on the classroom a visual (painting, photograph, gif, drawing) that they will analyze. Before class starts, they should look at the visual posted, and comment their first opinion about it.

Students will improve their narrative writing skills, and learn to use conversations, transitions, aspects of a story, figurative language, and parts of speech correctly.
