Class Experience

US Grade 2 - 5
Beginner Level
We’ll first discuss what makes a story good: the characters, the plot, or the ending (or everything). Then we'll read the first few sentences from a short story I wrote (Lisa’s Birthday Party), and discuss how the story might end. Most of the class will be discussion. I'll write up the finished story that we talk about in class and send it to the students after class.

Learning Goals

This class will give students a great practice in thinking and writing creatively. It's often hard for students to come up with ideas to write about and this exercise will help with that.
