In Writing Workshop, students will grow as writers by engaging in the full writing process—brainstorming, drafting, revising, editing, and publishing—throughout the year. We’ll explore a variety of writing styles and purposes, from personal narratives to persuasive essays to creative fiction, always considering audience and voice. Students will have a great deal of choice in the exact topics they write about, allowing them to develop confidence and joy in their writing. Peer feedback and group discussions will be a regular part of class, helping students learn from one another and refine their work. As a Christian community, we believe that since God is writing a big, redemptive story—and we are all part of it—the stories we read and write matter. Each piece of writing becomes an opportunity to reflect the truth that God made a good world, that it is broken, and that we are invited to help make it better.

Learn how to stay organized, prioritize, resist procrastination, become accountable for yourself and to others. Student-centered lessons which are based around the needs and goals of each student.
