US Grade 2 - 4
This 2-week class meets twice a week and will teach learners how to maximize imagination in creative writing. There will be some parts of speech and proofreading lessons, however, the main focus of this course is finding fun and joy in writing. I want learners to walk away feeling empowered to make their dreams and ideas into stories. Learners will learn how to use stream of consciousness and imagination exercises/prompts to do just that! Students will need a quiet space with a table and chair. A pencil and a journal or notebook. For Class 2 students will need a quiet space to lie flat on the floor. Class 1 Learners will get to know each other better by building a story together Class 2 Learners will be guided through an imagination exercise (bring a mat or towel for this class), then turn what they imagined into a story. Class 3 English basics; nouns, verbs, sentence structure, and proofreading as a team sport Class 4 Students will take their favorite story from the class, and work on a second draft before presenting their story to the class
Learning Goals
Learners should walk away from this course with at least two completed stories and knowledge of how to start new stories.
