和布列塔妮老師一起寫作

My academic, creative writing class is a workshop-style course that teaches students the fundamentals of creative writing, including how to develop characters, plot, setting, and theme; how to use language effectively to create vivid and engaging prose; and how to write in different genres of creative writing, such as fiction, poetry, and drama. Additionally, students will also learn how to write clear, concise, and informative texts. Students will learn how to choose a topic, conduct research, organize their ideas, and write in a style that is appropriate for their audience.

The course covers a variety of topics, including:

-The elements of fiction: character, plot, setting, theme, and conflict
-Point of view, dialogue, and pacing
-The different genres of creative writing and their unique conventions
-The different types of expository writing, such as essays, reports, and instructions
-How to gather and evaluate sources
-How to structure an expository essay
-How to use evidence to support your claims
-How to write a clear and concise style
-The revision and editing process
-The writing process as a whole


I teach the class using a variety of methods, including:

-Lecture
-Discussion
-Writing exercises
-Student and teacher conferring
-Videos
-Exemplars
-Modeling

My teaching style is interactive and collaborative. I believe that students learn best by doing, so I provide plenty of opportunities for students to write and share their work. I also believe that feedback is essential for learning, so I encourage students to reflect and receive feedback on their work.

Students will have a variety of opportunities to interact with me in class. I encourage students to ask questions and participate in discussions. I provide feedback to students on their work. I'll also have other students their age provide feedback.

No prior experience or knowledge is required for this class. However, students should be interested in writing and have a willingness to learn.
