Ever want to be a playwright? This class will introduce students to the structure of a one-act play and help them create their first scene. Come play with playwriting!

Please note- this is the second class in a two-part class. The first class will help students create their outline. If your student was unable to take the first class, I recommend purchasing the flex class.

Materials–

Students will need something to write on and something to write with.
Pre-writing sheet (printed) from the first class.

Class Structure–

In this class, students will learn about writing a scene in a play. I use short, fun exercises to help kids find interest and write. Time will be provided for students to share their writing if they want to. Students will find my classroom is a place to have fun, practice, and not worry about being perfect!

Typical Class Agenda-

• Welcome Activity
• Scene Writing Mini-lessons
• Time to Write
• Time to Share (optional)
• Closing activity

Teaching Style-

I believe in student-centered learning and in the importance of structure in a classroom. I set classroom agreements to help create a safe, fun, inspiring space for all students to feel supported, want to participate, and be able to learn. I encourage participation but do not force it. I use materials to help students connect and find interest.

Interaction-

I encourage participation throughout the class through both the chat and verbal. I make sure to answer all questions and call on all students who wish to participate. Students will interact with each other through discussion and when sharing their writing.

Prior Experience-

I recommend students take part one of this class (the live or flex class).

Recommended Age

This class is recommended for kids 8+. Families are welcome to join. Writers can write, have a scribe, or use speech-to-text.
