Can writers write without a pencil?
Writing in the Air is a workshop specifically designed for young writers from Kindergarten to Grade Three
The Students Will:

- Use active group storytelling students to explore story structure using visual prompts, literary terminology, and physical action.

Outcomes:
Post-presentation students can use what they learned to create a spoken word, picture-based, or written story using our story structure, character, and world-building handouts.
Curriculum Touch Points:
- Imagining, planning, and executing a story using story structure and understanding how messages and enjoyment can be shared through oral and written stories.
- Practicing listening and speaking skills, oral storytelling, collaboration - including listening, leading and following, and kind critiquing.
