Creative Writing Workshop
Duration: 1.5 hours
These workshops offer an opportunity for children and teens to seek out their creative writing skills.
The lessons aim to encourage youth to explore how to generate personal ideas and concepts which can be transformed into interesting and creative stories. Often it’s the ideas for writing that can be the most difficult for some children. Our workshops can offer methods for children to come up with ideas based on their own reflections and then develop skills on how to build on those concepts.
The students are given a number of scenarios or activities that can assist them to achieve this. Once the ideas are set and the creative juices are flowing we then teach kids strategies to formulate these into creative and innovative stories that they can relate to and enjoy.
Each child will be given the opportunity to write and create their own story with themselves as the main character. This story will be made into a small booklet for them to keep or alternatively the class may like to keep the books and make their own class set for all to read.
