Notebook and pen (or a computer if they prefer) at the ready, the Creative Writing for Kids Course will help your child on their way to becoming an author or poet. Jam-packed with tools and techniques, this course will help your child gain the skills and confidence needed to become a storyteller.
Getting them writing quickly and consistently, the course includes lots of warm-ups and practise exercises, and will have them writing lots of different stories and poems as they go on adventures with their characters. They can choose to write a new story each time, using the prompts and exercises to practise new skills or use the exercises to work towards a longer story if they feel more confident.
They’ll learn the lingo, practise their prose, and snag all the skills they need to be a wonderful writer. At the end of each module, assessments will make sure they know their stanzas from their similes. And by the end of the course, they will have built an impressive portfolio of writing and storytelling skills.
