A writing course for authors, teachers & students
Hello everyone,
The holidays have been a great break and a great time to reflect on how we best teach our students.
Providing real world examples from experts outside the classroom is a great way for children to learn - I’m sure you can see this from the multitude of school holiday exhibitions & activities on offer.
Many schools are starting to lean towards Guided Inquiry & Inquiry learning as a framework for teaching & learning and through this, searching for real world examples to inspire students to reach out beyond the classroom.
Working alongside an author is a great way to excite children about reading and writing and I’ve just recently come across a great new course that has been designed for budding authors but I believe will be fantastic also for teachers to sharpen their craft and also students to be inspired by.
How often do you encourage your students to write what they want to write? Be inspired by an image and just write away?
A course - run by Zanni Louise is a great way to inspire you as a teacher to teach creative writing in a fun way. The modules are designed to walk through building a setting, the characters & the plot narrative. She gives examples of how to ignite creativity and where to take small ideas.
I’ve recently participated in the course and I can highly recommend it, not only for my own writing skills but also in the way I will approach our narrative writing sessions in the classroom.
