Students will be taught techniques and activities to help get their creative juices flowing. Students will learn techniques to help guide their writing in each of these areas by direct instruction and by analyzing how successful authors do it. They will also be able to engage in writers workshop with their peers and teacher to help fine tune their own writing. The teacher will provide resources, activities, group activities, and writing prompts as well as specific, intentional feedback to help students improve their skills. Students will focus on one or two methods of engaging creativity each week over a variety of genres. Students will answer questions about the mentor texts in order to pinpoint the focus of learning the specific skills for each week. Students will also submit their assignment each week for teacher feedback which will focus on the specific areas of content and skill for the week. Teacher feedback will point to specific areas of their writing that they have done well or need improvement in order to display full mastery.

Experiencia y certificaciones del docente
Indiana Certificado de Docencia en Educación Secundaria
Hello! My name is Mrs. Henry, and I am a licensed secondary English teacher. I have taught 7-12 grade in a traditional classroom setting for the past 9 years. My repertoire of taught classes includes 7th-8th grade Language Arts, Accelerated Language Arts, 9th grade English, and high school creative writing (the curriculum for this class I designed myself!). I have also led a creative writing club as well as a writing lab.
Creative writing and British Literature are subjects I am most passionate about, but I'm in this field because I love all aspects of it: grammar, formal writing, literature, creative writing, and informational text. I would love to teach you about poetry, help you fine tune a story you're working on, lead you through the process of a research paper, deepen your understanding of grammar and semantics, or discuss the fine details of your favorite book. I love helping students through any part of the writing process as well as the rich discussions that come from digging in deep to a story or text.
