Do you love writing and receiving letters? Do you love reading fiction or nonfiction narratives? In this class, we’ll dive into authentic letter writing as both a form of correspondence and narrative. You’ll have the opportunity to write to people in your life who mean something to you or fantastical heroes from your favorite book. Each class will include a warmup, mini-lesson, literary mentor text, collaboration, and writing exercises. Students will learn to hone their voice, write in dual perspectives, incorporate setting, create tension, and consider artifacts, all while learning about story arc.  This will be a creative and collaborative class where we take pen to paper like it’s the 1900s again. Come join us!
