Class Experience

Welcome! During this neurodiverse-friendly ongoing class, learners will come together to collaborate to create a short story. At the end of the class, the story created by the learners will be messaged to each family. Each learner will play an important role in creating the story, and every learner has a say in what happens throughout our short story. This will start when the teacher (me!) creates a random set of topics, character ideas, types of adventures, and sub-topics in different bowls. After I pick out a random piece of paper with a plot idea from one of the magic bowls, I will share it with the class to build our story together. Learners will have the opportunity to interact with me and their fellow learners throughout this ongoing class in a discussion format. No experience is required for this course.
