Video Game Creative Writing!
Class experience
US Grade 3 - 5
In this course we will use your favorite video games as a way to hone our creative writing skills. We will create a character and setting, and explore how we use that character to advance a plot and develop a theme. I will teach a 'mini-lesson' and then allow learners to practice that skill in the class. Meeting 1- Develop a character Meeting 2- What's the setting and problem? Meeting 3- Writing an introduction Meeting 4- Writing a climax and conclusion Meeting 5- Wrap up and revise At the...
Students will learn pre-writing skills such as character development, story organization, setting, theme, and plot development. They will learn how to hook the reader, focus and elaborate on elements that advance the story, and conclude in a way that satisfies the reader. They will also learn some revision techniques.

While the age range of the class is only three years, it is a BIG three years. As such, I'll expect that learners do not include violence or weapons in their stories. Many of their favorite video games do include weapons and violence, so I respectfully ask that if a learner is enrolled they understand those are elements they will not be allowed to use. Please understand, however, that a learner could mistakenly draw a lightsaber on someone's belt, or write about a dinosaur eating a goat. It's a very fine line to walk, but I will do my best ensure that all learners feel safe while also expressing themselves. I do have a more mature camp in which I allow a limited use of violence and weapons. If your learner is 11 and you think that class would be a better fit feel free to enroll them.
