Beginner - Intermediate Level
With the use of my own created activity sheet, learners will delve into their imagination and write a short holiday story. The primary character, setting, problem, theme, and solution of the story are decided when learners choose a number between 1-5. Each learner will get a turn to choose a number for each category. Once all five categories have a number assigned to them, learners will be provided with starter ideas for each story element. 
The starter ideas will be a guide for learners to generate their information and create their own creative story.  

Will the plot revolve on Rudolph the Red-Nosed reindeer searching for Santa's broken sleigh? Or will it centre on Mrs. Claus having tea in her living room while Santa runs around looking for wrapping paper? There are a ton of potential plot points!

The class is structured where each learner will get a turn to pick a number for each category. Once both learners chose their numbers, I will facilitate the class by encouraging them to use their imagination and expand on the idea starters. There will be numerous opportunities to engage in oral discussions. Further, learners will be typing their story and I will assist with spelling and punctuation. 

My teaching style is very informative. I like to engage in class discussions and allow learners to participate as much as possible so that they can share their ideas verbally.

There will be ample of opportunities to interact with me and with the group member. Each learner will have access to Google Slides where explanations and instructions will be posted.
