Grades 3 - 6, Session A, Mondays

Service Description

Our theme for this 6-week session is ‘seeing.’ Together we will adventure into stories and poems that bring even the most seemingly ordinary scenes to life and invite young writers to re-envision the world around them. In this class, students will discover that when we look very closely, and see very clearly, even the smallest moments are full of wonder. Most importantly, they will be invited to see that THEY have the ability to create their own powerful meaning in the world. This will be a class full of wonder, curiosity and creation! ***Classes at The Dreamer’s Desk will always focus on writing as a form of exploration, creativity, empathy and discovery. Each 6-week session will then have a unique focus or theme to inspire the poems and stories we will read together, and the prompts for new writing. This theme will be shared across groups; while readings and prompts for classes grades 3 – 6 will be focusing on ‘seeing’ during Session A, so will classes for grades 6 – 9 and 9 – 12. The materials and discussions, however, will be developmentally appropriate for each unique group’s needs, and always accessible, vibrant and welcoming. Our goal for each student, regardless of grade or theme, is that they complete their time together with us with greater confidence in their skills as a writer, feel proud of their imaginations and voices, and believe in their unique abilities, talents and dreams, whatever they may be.
