Creative Writing - Have you ever wondered what you would say to an alien, what you would do with a pot of gold, or what you would do if a monkey followed you home from the zoo?  Then Creative Writing is for you!  Be aware: we laugh, we listen, we use our imaginations, and we encourage one another.  Please bring your listening ears and your funny bone!  We will write and share for 15-30 minutes and listen to a book (title coming soon) for the remainder of the class.  All materials are provided and children will go home with a writing packet at the end of the semester.
