Creative class

1. My hypothetical class is a creative writing class for high school seniors (17-18 years old) and there are fourteen students in the class. The class has a good grasp on writing poetry, minimal experience writing non-fiction and fiction stories with and without dialogue, and are extremely comfortable sharing their pieces with me (the teacher) and their classmates. They do not however, have experience with merging fiction and non-fiction, so that is a major accomplishment goal with this piece.…

I love creative writing and I have written many fictional stories in my short nineteen years of life, and finding the motivation to push through and write was challenging for me this semester due to the fact that I am more of a creative writer was difficult. Once I got to college and realized that GSW was not a place really the place to show off how creative you can be, I had to relearn the academic writing process. This was one of…

The one area over the years which I have the most problems in my English class is creative writing. For instance, our writing assignment for the Christmas holiday in the fourth grade was to create a famous person from an inanimate object and to give him a backstory. As I sat in my room pondering, I saw a sock. I immediately had an inspiration to create Socky Balboa, a famous boxer who was made of a sock. I based my story on the story of Rocky Balboa. After much hard work I was certain that I had…

the Blue coded (100%). What shocked me was my Reading, Writing and Recall scores which fell way below my personal expectations at 79% (88% in Apprehension, 80% in Grammar, Usage and Syntax and 60% in Structure). As a student planning to minor in Creative Writing I cringed when I saw these terrible results in what I believed were my strengths not weaknesses! I immediately began to search the SNHU Resources in MySNHU for tutoring and online writing resources that would help me strengthen these…

bounds from an innocent and inexperienced adolescent in grade six, to a mature, well-equipped writer in grade eleven. Therefore, from this upper level English class, I have learned a different caliber of writing and writing techniques. I have learned how to better prepare for different types of essays. The writings required for this class have varied from informative to persuasive essays. From personal experience, my strength lies in persuasive essays. For example, we were to write a paper…

minute decision. I figured, because I always wrote on my free time, It would be good to use writing as a way to improve my skills. The previous creative writing classes that I enrolled in weren’t challenging because I was required to write short stories and this appeared easier for me. My writing anxiety didn’t escalate until I took this class, a poetry class. Immediately, I saw myself back in Middle School, surrounded by students who were so talented at writing that I felt like the outlier. In…

When i first entered this course i expected it to be as hard as a college class. What i did find out was that it was much more streamlined and functioned as a class on how to manage your time and deal with big projects. I was really efficient in writing and being creative in my papers but not so much when it came to research papers. We mostly wrote research papers in this class so instead of using my strength in creativity i mostly had to do research and be genuinely interested in the topic i…

the University of Central Arkansas for an entire semester now and have learned more than I would have thought. I was told to take this Writing 1310 class and I am glad I did. This class has taught me several things and has helped me grow as a writer. I have learned how to write and express myself through writing. Everything we have learned in this class has helped become a better student. There are several course objectives that I have grown in. I have grown in my use of rhetorical knowledge.…

Rhetta takes her book and turns around, not talking for the rest of the class, leaving Marylin to take facts upon appearance. Marylin wishes she could have said yes but writing a book with Rhetta Mayes didn't seem like a good idea. She shooed the idea out of her head and walked to her locker with Mazie. Since getting her quitar, Kate was having a hard time writing songs. She wanted to be a guitar player who wrote about a boy named Dallas. Within just a short period of days, Kate had made five…
