Threaded into writing : Guidance in Story Composition, Grammar,

Creative Writing & Art will support each facet and help it to come alive. 
We will help children feel confident where they are at, excited to learn and write. We will work on building stories, character development, building a plot, formation of a story. We'll take time to listen to a story and discuss elements like who is the main character, and comprehension questions. Taking it outside to do some thoughtful nature journaling, weaving art in some art to illustrate their story or journaling. We will end the semester with a bound book we make in class with their story & illustrations.
