Creative Writing Summer Camp- Create a Zine
Class experience
US Grade 4 - 7
Let's get creative this summer! Together we'll make mini-magazines called ZINES. I'll use mini-lessons to help kids learn and practice creative writing in class. We'll experiment with poetry and prose. Students will have time to write and craft their zines in class but may want to spend time working on them outside of class. Topics and Class Structure- Day 1- Welcome Activities What is a Zine? Brainstorming- What Will My Zine Be About? Fast writing to find ideas Create a Cover Day 2-...
This class is taught in English.
Students will create a one-of-a-kind personal zine.
I received my Secondary English teaching license in 2004. Since then, I have taught in public schools, private schools, and online. I currently teach ELL, ELA, and creative writing to students ages 4-84. My teaching style is encouraging and creative. I want my students to learn how they learn best, to feel supported, and for reading and writing to be enjoyable.

In addition to the Outschool classroom, this class uses:
Nearpod- I use Nearpod (a free website) in all of my classes to provide interactive ways for students to engage in the material. My lessons may include educational YouTube videos in the Nearpod lesson. Students can only see and engage with the videos and materials I choose. I guide them through the lesson. Nearpod also allows students to annotate the texts we're reading, listen to the text if they are auditory learners, and interact with each other through a collaborative board. These activities are only available during class and while I am on-site with them.
