In our Creative Writing class, we’ll spark our imaginations and grow our writing skills in a fun, supportive environment. As a supplemental language arts class, we’ll also spend time each week practicing both print and cursive handwriting to strengthen fine motor skills and writing fluency.
A key part of our curriculum will be the Night Zookeeper program—a fantastic resource that offers creative writing prompts and projects designed to engage young writers. Along the way, students will also build vocabulary and practice spelling in an enjoyable, low-pressure way. Through Night Zookeeper, students will be introduced to a variety of writing genres, including persuasive writing, reports, poetry, and more.
Each class will begin with a focused handwriting lesson, where we’ll learn and practice specific letter forms and techniques. Afterward, we’ll dive into our Night Zookeeper writing adventures, giving students the chance to express themselves, explore new ideas, and develop confidence in their writing voice.
