Creative ELA’s Family membership is an affordable way for homeschoolers to help their kids enjoy reading and writing while becoming proficient. The live classes, book clubs, literary magazine staff positions, and pen pal groups also help kids make great friends!

Creative ELA is a one-stop place for English Language Arts. Geared towards students 8-18 years old, you’ll find engaging ELA activities for your students all year.

Have younger students? Many of the resources and flex classes can work for them, too!

Need help homeschooling or teaching English? Resources to support YOU are here as well.

My membership is a Family Membership, meaning you pay one price for your entire family!

NEW! Creative ELA’s All Access Membership

This membership is for families who are looking for both creative reading and writing classes AND classes that mirror what a student might take in school. While still fun and engaging, these classes offer students lessons in reading comprehension, academic writing, grammar, revision, and editing.

• English Language Arts for 4th- 6th graders– offered September- May with a break in December. Each class meets for an hour, four times throughout the month on Tuesdays at 12 pm ET.
• English Language Arts for 7th & 8th graders– offered September- May with a break in December. Each class meets for an hour, four times throughout the month on Tuesdays at 1 pm ET.
• High School English– offered September- May with a break in December. Each class meets for 60 minutes, four times throughout the month on Wednesdays from 12-1:00 pm ET.
• Everything in the Classroom and Library Memberships– 45 live classes, book clubs, novel studies, literary magazine staff, pen pals, ELA resources (recorded flex classes, mini-lessons, reading and writing activities), and homeschool support.

My live classes offer students-

• Opportunities to read and write in a variety of genres about topics that interest them
• A safe, encouraging, fun place to share their writing and learn from other writers
• Creative writing projects and activities
• Revision and editing lessons
• Strategies to become more proficient readers
• Authentic ways to improve their spelling, grammar, and vocabulary
• Opportunities to participate in and lead book discussions
• Opportunities to connect with other homeschoolers all over the country and the world

Without a Creative ELA Classroom Membership, you’d pay $460 yearly for just one student to take my classes.

1. An hour-long online English Language Arts class, Each Month (12 a year @ $15)- $180
2. Creative Writing Studio– an hour-long, online class EACH MONTH (12 a year @ $10)- $120
3. Monthly Book Clubs– online class, Each Month (10 a year @ $5)- $50
4. Rotating class– Homeschool Hangout (games and collaborative activities), homeschool pen pal class, or extra Creative Writing Topics class- an hour-long class Each Month (11 a year @ $10)- $110

This price doesn’t include the full library of flex classes ($15 a piece) and English Language Arts resources (price varies) that Classroom Members can access.

Without the All Access Membership, you’d pay $460 + $400 for ELA classes for just one student to take my classes.

Creative ELA Member

Creative ELA owner, English teacher, creative writer, and homeschooler- Kelly Sage

Hello! If we haven’t met before, I am Kelly, an English Language Arts teacher (20+ years) and homeschooler (12+ years).

I’ve created Creative ELA because I LOVE to teach. I believe a creative approach to learning is the best way to learn, and I know from experience what a gift it is to have high-quality, engaging resources for my homeschoolers that I can afford. 

My hope is that Creative ELA classes and resources help your kids learn AND experience reading and writing in a way that offers connection, fun, and the desire to keep learning!

Essentially, Creative ELA’s membership is where I am sharing EVERYTHING I’ve learned and continue to learn as an English teacher and homeschooler.

Creative ELA’s Classroom and Library Membership includes FLEX classes.

You have immediate access to:

All the FLEX classes in my shop, including EIGHT courses from 2023, 10 from 2024, and 10 from 2025. A new flex class is added each month. Here are just a few of the classes available. You can see the entire list here. While some of my flex classes can be purchased individually, most are just for members.

Creative ELA Classroom and Library Members have access to TONS of ELA Resources.

Here’s a peek at everything in the member library as of December 2025. The member library is always growing! Members have access to everything!

Homeschool Pen Pals– a quarterly pen pal group that includes prompts and activities to connect your kids with other homeschoolers

Monthly Book Clubs– Bookworms (ages 8-11) and Bibliophiles (ages 12-15)

Literary Magazine Staff

Staff create the magazine! I’m the advisor. They handle design, marketing, editing, and have an opportunity to create the magazine’s cover.

Ages– The materials I offer are aimed toward upper elementary, middle school, and high school students, but you know your child best, so younger students are welcome.

Inclusivity

YES! My classes welcome students from all countries, genders, backgrounds, and beliefs, and I am committed to creating a safe space for all students. All of my materials and class discussions are secular. 

Neurodiversity

Students who are neurodiverse will find my resources, classes, and unit studies offer many options and encouragement to help them learn how they learn best. I have decades of experience working with neurodiverse learners. If you have questions or concerns, please reach out. 

My child hates reading/writing.

I have taught a lot of kids who hate reading and writing. It’s one of the reasons I use a creative approach. Kids do not typically hate reading and writing per se; they’re struggling because the material does not match their learning style or address their needs. My classes and resources meet kids where they are and help them learn and enjoy learning. 

I have multiple children. 

Great! They are all welcome to use the materials and join the classes.

I do ask you not to share my materials with other families. Instead, encourage them to join too!

Do you have to be a member to join my classes?

No, most of my classes can be purchased individually. A membership is a great option if you want to take my English Language Arts classes and have access to my resources while saving a lot of money.

Additional Questions

What are your qualifications?

I earned a BA in English and obtained my secondary English teaching license in 2004. I taught English for nine years in middle and high school classrooms. In 2013, I became a certified creative writing facilitator and started leading women’s and youth creative writing circles for Women Writing for (a) Change, Bloomington. In 2017, I started teaching online for Outschool. I currently teach on Curiosity Encouraged, LLC (Creative ELA) and Outschool. You can also find me leading classes for Women Writing for (a) Change, Bloomington, Kindred Explorers, and Cambly. I no longer keep my VA or IN teaching license active since I work nationwide and worldwide. I continue to take professional development classes and keep up with new research and findings.
