Free Homeschool Class: Let's Write A Short Story
A gentle, fun introduction to storytelling, this class is perfect for the budding writer who needs a little help clarifying their ideas as well as students who need to grow their writing confidence. We'll discuss the basic ingredients in a story, and then a basic story recipe. Students will then spend about fifteen minutes creating their own stories! This class is best for students under ten who are able to write independently, though of course, younger students are welcome-- they just might need a little more help from their adults.
