Content

  • OPENING LINES

    Our next block of Creative Writing Club for Secondary Students will continue to celebrate the fabulous talent within the £2 Tuition Hub. This group will build on skills learned in primary school and allow students to develop their own particular style.

    You’ll already know how to use figurative language and you’ll have a good grasp of grammar and structure, but you might feel restricted in how you use those skills.

    In this group, we will be basing our writing on different stimuli each week and for September, our theme will be
    OPENING LINES.
    Each week, students will be given a different opening line to stimulate their creative ideas, which can be adapted for different forms. We will be looking at different forms of writing – prose fiction, description, poetry, drama – and you’ll be able to take your own direction.

  • Each lesson, there will be an opportunity to present your work to the group for comment and critique. If you’d like to read your poem or story, if you’d like the group to perform a play that you’ve written, this is the group for you.

    If you want to be a silent participant, that’s also fine! However, if you want to have your work read aloud and presented to the group anonymously, you can do that too.

    You don’t need to have done previous blocks to participate in the new live sessions for this one but nineteen previous blocks are available to purchase.

    Course Objectives:

    To develop skills in different forms of creative writing and to learn how to comment critically on the work of others.
