Do you have a  writer at home who loves to write and tell stories or a young writer who struggles to start writing?
 This class works for both. 

Do you have a young student who loves to write about characters but struggles with descriptions, or vice versa? This class works for both. 

In this class, the students will write a short story to share with others to develop story-writing skills and descriptions of characters and locations.

To help with creativity and to start the story, they will be given a specific location and character every week.

The location and character will be presented in image form, and we will discuss both together for about 15 minutes to get their writing process and imagination going. (See below for a more detailed schedule)

This class will encourage young storytellers and writers to expand their writing, strengthen their creativity, and practice sharing with others. 


The schedule for the class will look like this:

15 minutes to discuss and brainstorm the character and location of the week

25 -30 minutes to write 

15-20 minutes to share their stories (read, copy, and paste into the chat box or screen share)

The student doesn't need to worry about spelling and grammar mistakes as we will focus on the story.
