쓰세요, 수행하세요: 당신만의 모험 스토리 쓰기

In this class students will explore three popular classic children's books: Pete the Cat, Frog and Toad, and Are You My Mother?. We will discuss the components of a "Hero's Journey" story adventure and learn about internal vs. external conflict. Armed with these examples and information, students will then have the opportunity to write their own children's adventure story! 

Day #1: 
Day one we are examining books that work! Why are these books that children love? In this class Ms. Jackson will read books and learners can remember their younger years.
Day one we are outlining the adventurous assignment! Students will write a 15-20 page (2-5 sentences per page!)  hero's journey adventure story geared for children ages 5-10. The story should have a hero and an internal or external conflict, challenges on the journey, and end with a resolution to the conflict. Students can exercise all their imagination and creativity to create fun and interesting characters for children to enjoy!
