our innovative exponential. In writing, this is no exception.

chance through reading and writing. He also sets out to learn how to read and write. After some hard and tedious years of work, he decides to become a writer. He writes novels, short stories, and poems. Along with this, he also teaches Indian kids creative writing. Though he became a writer and a teacher, it was not always that way. He used to read a whole lot, and learned by a Superman comic. Sherman Alexie learned how to read at the age three from a Superman comic book. He would say out loud…
This has been such a challenging course for me personally as I’m such a logical person that has always been more of a research analysis typewriter that any level of creative writing is something that is so baffling to me that I put myself into a worrying stint when I signed up for this course. However, now at the end of the semester, I’m utterly glad that I took this course because while this level of writing is very different from my normal range, it helped me to see such a unique form of…
My writing experience: I didn’t start to read until I was in first grade. Every week we would go to library to check-out two books and take a test on the books we read on a computer. Every day in English we read a short story to ourselves then we would play games dealing with the story to make it fun. To be honest I never really did a lot of writing in Elementary , Middle, or High school so I can’t pinpoint when I started writing. In essay writing I learned its always good to express…
"Show, don't tell." A few years ago, I completed a creative writing seminar at university, and that is the one piece of advice that was burned into my brain. It is so tempting to "tell" readers how to perceive your characters, or how the action of your story is progressing; it is much more difficult to "show" them. The use of adjectives, and adverbs even more so, is intimately linked to the “telling” of a story. How did he ask her? *Desperately*. How did she walk? *Casually*. It takes a little…
I connect with this quote because I believe it is a very accurate description of myself when I do not write. For me writing gives me the ability to get out of my own head. Writing allows me to put my anxiety on paper. Everything that I can't stop obsessing over leaves my head, enters my fingers, and befriends the paper. When I can not write, in a way it is my own form of insanity. From first to third grade I hated the thought of picking up a book, and despised even having to write my name at…
that I had done some of my best work and that there was no way that I could receive a bad grade on this piece of work. After reviewing the feedback I received I found that my work was not up to APA standards. The narrative that I wrote was more of a creative writing piece and barely a scientific piece. I thought that this piece was going to be great because I was very descriptive and visualized most details of my experience. I thought it would be a good idea to stand out with this piece instead…
I started writing about six years ago, but I never seriously thought of becoming a writer until last year. When I was younger, it was always more of a hobby, something I did that other people said I was good at, and I was like, “Okay, I’ll keep doing this.” I liked doing it but I always thought just liking it wasn’t enough, but now that I’m older I’m starting to realize the act of writing isn’t the most important part for me, it’s the storytelling that has tethered me to this profession. The…
The creative curriculum opens up many doors for little minds. Children learn from doing things themselves through play. Three objectives in this activity are demonstrating balancing skills, solves problems, and demonstrating fine motor skills. I will change up the classroom just a little by bringing out new building blocks and other objects to build with and assigning tasks in each center to try that have to do with building and using fine motor skills. In this plan all children will be able to…
and combining it or refining it with the modern. I have a huge interest in education in young children, and as someone personally impacted by this series when I was a kid (it sparked my interest in not just mythology but also English as a language, creative writing, and education), I understand how much potential any type of external source can have on affecting children. I would ask him how he thinks about his audience when he is writing his work, where he gathers inspirations from, and how we…
