Fantasy Fiction Creative Writing Workshop: City of Secrets (Semester Long)
Class experience
US Grade 7 - 9
This class will involve creating a city that exists on another planet or in an alternative universe. Learners will do some creative world building together: we'll create some interesting characters, fascinating secrets, unusual objects, and strange events that everyone can share and use in their stories. However, the stories learners start to write using their main character will be entirely their own. The process: Step 1: Each week students will receive a writing exercise that relates to...
As the class goes on learners practice: • organizing their thoughts with pre-writing exercises • reading their work out loud • listening to their peers in an engaged and respectful way • giving articulate, respectful, and helpful feedback to their peers • developing their focus and concentration on a task • letting creative ideas flourish • engaging in exciting collaborative engagement with other students • learning elements of novel plot structure

Students are keenly aware of their peer's reactions to their work. They know when everyone is listening breathlessly. As they participate in the workshop they naturally want to read something other students will enjoy, so they naturally begin pushing themselves to write better work using the tools presented by the instructor in exercises. By the end of the workshop, their writing has reached a more sophisticated and challenging level.Grades Offered
Students should have access to writing paper and pen for each workshop class. We want to put our inner critic away--it's too easy to erase words on the computer. Tip: have a folder on hand so you can put stories from the workshop together at the end of each day.
