Unlock your child's creativity Each week, students will tackle a new type of essay—narrative, descriptive, persuasive, and expository—using their favorite games as inspiration. 

From crafting epic gaming adventures to writing step-by-step guides, this class encourages creative thinking, clear organization, and confident communication. 


✨𝐖𝐡𝐲 𝐘𝐨𝐮𝐫 𝐂𝐡𝐢𝐥𝐝 𝐍𝐞𝐞𝐝𝐬 𝐓𝐡𝐢𝐬 𝐂𝐥𝐚𝐬𝐬✨

🎮Fun and Engaging Classes: By exploring the stories behind their favorite games, learners develop writing skills without feeling like they’re "working."

🧩Critical Thinking: Learners will analyze complex plots, create unique characters, and understand how great narrative writing works.

💡Essential Writing Skills: This class is fun and approachable, but students will learn real essay writing skills they can apply for the rest of their education. 

🎯Skill-Based Writing Development: Learners will practice logical thinking and different essay structures without even realizing it because they will think we're just talking about video games. 

🎨A Creative Outlet : Writing becomes a way for learners to express ideas, explore world-building, and develop their imagination.

•Kids who love video games and want to improve their writing skills

•Students who want to develop their logical and critical thinking skills

This interactive writing class transforms video game lovers into lifelong writers, turning their passion for gaming into stories filled with creativity, imagination, and confidence.

📆𝐂𝐥𝐚𝐬𝐬 𝐒𝐜𝐡𝐞𝐝𝐮𝐥𝐞📆
We will meet once per week for 45 minutes in each class. 

The beginning of class will be a quick chat and a five to ten minute writing warmup prompt to chase away those creative cobwebs. Students will be invited to share their writing with the class.

We will then dive into that day's lesson. 

At the end of the lesson, I will assign the homework and the students have until the next class to submit their assignment in the classroom. 

If we have extra time, we will have free write time for students to get a head start on their writing assignment. 

All assignments that are turned in on time will be read and reviewed by me. I will provide my feedback and return it back to them.
