US Grade 1 - 2
The purpose of this writing club for 1st and 2nd graders is to encourage creativity, develop writing skills, and foster a love for storytelling in a fun and supportive environment. Young students can learn to express their thoughts through words practice writing different types of texts, such as stores, poems, comics, and descriptions. This will provide them with opportunities to improve their vocabulary and sentence structure. The club also helps build confidence in sharing ideas with peers, enhances communication skills, and promotes collaborative learning through group activities and writing exercises. Each week, we'll use writing "spells" (like creative prompts, games and mini-lessons) to bring stories to life. Whether students are just starting to write or already love it, they will have so much fun making new friends and sharing their ideas in this magical storytelling journey!
Learning Goals
To help young learners develop foundational creative writing skills, including generating ideas, organizing thoughts into simple story structures (beginning, middle, and end), and expressing themselves through imaginative storytelling.
