September has arrived and school has started. Kickstart the learning with fun writing programs like our Young Writers Program that teaches Reading Comprehension, Vocabulary & Spelling, Grammar & Writing Conventions, and Novel Writing.
Children learn descriptive and persuasive writing skills, learn how to write dialog, and learn how to develop the plot for a story from start to finish. They will write their own short story from start to finish. They will edit this themselves and with peer editing.
Children also build confidence not just with a completed project as big as a story, but from the leadership roles they will take as they interview editors and artists and as a group choose an editor for the anthology they will publish and an artist to design the cover art. They follow this with learning about the publishing world and seeing their stories come together in a final published anthology. Then they investigate locations and decide on a place (making the arrangements themselves with guidance) for their very own Book Launch. They will be coached on how to greet people, how to host, how to introduce colleagues, how to engage their audience and read a selection from their story at this book launch.
This is a TRANSFORMATIVE experience for all students aged 10-17, even for adults who wish to do this program. Students with learning difficulties like Dyslexia and mild ADHD show MARKED improvement in language and learning, focus and concentration, and especially self-confidence.
