A video-based
self-study course that not only teaches creative writing but is also a tool to
better analyze and understand literature. Students will learn how to write
effective dialogue, build confidence in their own voice, and craft memorable
characters and compelling narratives. Discover what makes literature good as
Rogers walks students through three famous novels and a novel written himself.
Each
book has 18 digital lessons that are more than just a brief tutorial—in fact,
most of the lessons will each take about 25 minutes to watch. Reading
assignments, pdfs for writing exercises, and optional supplemental writing
exercises follow each video.Because the digital access is lifetime,
this program can be used in a couple ways:
Complete
the entire program, along with reading the books, in one year for an ELA credit.
Add a grammar component if your student still needs to shore up their grammar
skills.
Use
it as a supplement by just doing one lesson a week.
Each book is worth ¼ credit when done alone.
