Stepping Into the Woods: Creative Writing
What happened when she placed her hand on the oak tree? Why is there a journal lodged in a tree branch high above? Was that fox following him along the trail? Students will dive into the woods with their imaginations to create short stories and poems which will be collected into a student authored anthology. Using nature as our guide, along with samples from other famous texts, students will learn how to use the environment around them to spark creative characters, plots, and perhaps even some wise poetry!
