Class Schedule(s)
0 availableClass Description
In this class we will explore different fun and exciting genres. Every two weeks we will focus on and write a unique story specializing in our chosen genre. First we will examine the science fiction/Dystopian genre and students will get to hear some brilliant writing samples from H.G. Wells, George Orwell (Animal Farm), Ray Bradbury (Fahrenheit 451), and/ or Philip K. Dick (Blade Runner). Then we will do Comedy! We will read excerpts from famous comedians or comedic writers and then set out to do something daring, bold, and of course… funny! On a more theatrical note, we will also work on theater and poetry and draw inspiration from Shakespeare and some short films to write our mini play or short film script. Finally, we will do Fantasy stories and read some selections from The Hobbit and Lord of the Rings. Students will also have opportunity to discuss the work and learn what it means to be a dynamic storyteller. You will not only learn how to improve your writing, but have a blast during the creative process.Additional Information
