Learning Goals:
FOR PARENTS: 
As the class goes on students will get practice in:
•	Organizing their thoughts with pre-writing exercises
•	Reading their work out loud
•	Listening to their peers in an engaged and respectful way
•	Giving articulate, respectful, and helpful feedback to their peers
•	Developing focus and concentration on a task
•	Letting their creative ideas flourish
•	Exciting collaborative engagement with other students 

This workshop is for kids who relish a creative challenge. There's so much to write about--new characters, new creatures, new adventures--your tween won't want to stop even after writing time is over.  The collaborative world building element of creating their own planet creates a bond between students that they won't forget.

Students are keenly aware of their peer's reactions to their work. They know when everyone is listening breathlessly.  They know when everyone is excited about their writing. Positive reinforcement for strong writing from the group encourages students to write at a more challenging level.
