***I love Legend of Zelda SO much! And, I'm sure that you do too, since you're checking out this class. To sweeten the deal, use my coupon code TUCKEZELDAFAN5 to get $5 off this class!*** If you're looking to improve your writing skills in a fun way, you'll enjoy the Legend of Zelda Weekly Writing Club! Start off 2024 working on your resolution to write better! Each week you will see an example of what we'll be writing, then receive a fun prompt to write on your own! Each month we'll have a different Legend of Zelda game theme that we'll use, and each week we'll focus on a different kind of writing theme. You do NOT have to know everything about every Zelda game, in order to fully enjoy this class. ALSO, if your learner doesn't enjoy the month's theme they can use whatever game they like, provided they use the prompts given. Please see the schedule below.

You will NOT be charged for weeks that do not have classes scheduled, so it is NOT necessary to un-enroll that weeks. In 2024, I will NOT be scheduling any classes for the following weeks: * July 7th due to a prior Spanish interpreting commitment. 🪅 Classes will resume the week of July 14th. * December 22nd and 29th due to Christmas. 🎄 Classes will resume the week of January 5th. My no-show policy: if no learners are in the classroom after 10 minutes, the Zoom session will be ended (this is Outschool's general policy for no-shows).
Learning Goals
Learners will work on their writing skills while practicing writing using fun prompts and specific writing topics.
Other Details
Supply List
Learners will need either paper and something to write with, or a word processing tool open and running on their computer or device during class time. For *some* topics (think really breaking down words and technical grammar) I may use fun educational games such as Blooket or Kahoot! You do NOT have to have an account for either game. You can use the device you use for Outschool Zoom classes OR have an additional device (tablet, phone). ~ For Blooket, go to play.blooket.com prior to class time and I'll let you know the game ID during class. ~ For Kahoot, go to www.kahoot.it prior to class time and I'll let you know the PIN number during class.
