Realistic Fiction

We have officially kicked off our first writing unit of the year and are diving into the narrative genre of Realistic Fiction. We have been busy thinking about stories that are inspired by events in our own lives, stories we wish existed in the world and developing our characters in everyday situations to have a better sense of their desires, struggles and motivations. By spending time living the day to day events in our characters lives, we can start to have a stronger connection to them before we start writing. Please check out or Padlet for all the tools we have been using for the first four sessions and to get a sneak peek into where we are heading next.
