Let's Write: Fabulous Fiction Flex Course B2+ CEFR

This is an English Writing class for students who are developing their writing skills, and are looking to develop their skills in specific writing genres. This class will not meet face-to-face. Each week will consist of a variety of tasks to allow learners to improve their writing skills.  Learners will work collaboratively to improve their writing skills and knowledge. One of the benefits of this flex class can be that learners can take as much time as they want to review materials and the recordings. 

Week 1  -  Creating a character

Week 2 - Describing a setting 

Week 3 - Writing a fairy story

Week 4 - Writing an adventure story 

Week 5 - Writing a scary story

Week 6 - Writing a science fiction story

Learners will be required to:
✔️Share ideas with other learners by completing written tasks. 
✔️ Post in the classroom for instructor feedback.
✔️ Critique and comment on classmates' paragraphs.
✔️ Respond to discussion questions in the Classroom.
✔️Use the classroom to analyse model texts. 
✔️Complete a jigsaw writing task collaboratively with other learners. 

Each week will include vocabulary, grammar and input on ideas.  Recordings will be 20-25 minutes long. Learners will be provided with scaffolding for each of the tasks that they can follow. Each week will include input on suggested language learners may wish to use along with grammatical structures that will suit the topics. Learners are encouraged to include their own ideas. 

A flex course allows learners to cover material during a time that is convenient for them each week.  Students are encouraged to check in with the teacher weekly via the Outschool classroom, which will allow for more engagement between the teacher and learner.  After weekly lessons, students can collaborate with their peers by replying to the announcements and lesson postings in the Outschool classroom.

Participation will include the Introduction post, discussion posts, assignments, and projects in the Classroom. This allows students to process what they are learning by collaborating with peers and the teacher.  Participation in assignments allows students to practise and reinforce learning.  This also provides opportunities for the teacher to gauge student learning and provide interventions if necessary.  Private messages or classroom comments are usually responded to within 24 hours with the exception of Mondays and Tuesdays.  


This course is taught by Teacher Kristin.
