A writing workshop is an invaluable resource for both budding and seasoned writers seeking to hone their craft. These collaborative sessions provide a supportive environment where participants can share their work and receive constructive feedback from peers and instructors. The workshops often focus on various aspects of writing, such as character development, narrative structure, and language use, allowing writers to explore different techniques and styles. By engaging with diverse perspectives, writers can gain insights into their own work and be inspired by the creativity of others. Ultimately, these workshops foster a sense of community among writers, offering a space for growth and inspiration.

This is a great class for students who enjoy telling magical stories and exploring new weekly fantasy topics. Each meeting's theme and writing tips are based on student and parent requests. My message box is open 24/7 for requests related to lessons, genres, writing prompts, and one-on-one feedback or assistance with writing challenges. 
(Artists and Musicians Welcome)

Structure for each meeting:

Flex Time: Students can discuss their weekly writing and ask any questions they have.

Lesson Time: We will dive into our genre/topic of the week and share helpful writing tips for everyone.

Writing Time: This is the students’ free time to engage in various types of writing, whether it's short stories, fan fiction, flash fiction, micro fiction, novellas, poems, songs, scripts, artwork for stories, storyboarding, or character building.

Share Time: Sharing work in class is optional, so students can choose to showcase their creations if they feel comfortable.

Necesidades de aprendizaje
Students who may need some extra assistance are welcome to message me throughout the week. All lessons are recorded and can be viewed at any time - This helps with self pacing and memory retention.
Orientación para padres
Dark Woods, Abusive Step Mothers, Kidnapping, Grimm, Death, Dungeons, War, Battles, Dark Magic, Witches, Children in danger... I approach these topics with an understanding that a few might be a little heavy on a younger audience. We work together and lighten the topic to avoid discomfort by any means. No swearing (please use the 'bleep' if you must), sexual-related content, or torture. Violations will be reported to Outschool immediately. - If we aren't sure about something, please feel free to ask.
Lista de útiles escolares
