Description
Class Experience
We focus on the following elements of character building: - Personality - History - Motivation - Physical Appearance Our class is focused on generating ideas and putting them together in interesting ways, brainstorming and then putting them into practice through prose. We are not focused in this class on correcting the mechanics of writing such as spelling, grammar, and punctuation.
Students need a way to write during class. This could be pencil and paper or, if the student is proficient at typing and can do so while also having Zoom open, it could be a computer.
45 minutes per week in class, and maybe some time outside of class.
