Creative Writing
Course Description:
Creative Writing is a composition course that will introduce students to techniques aimed at developing the creative process. Students will experiment with expressive and poetic modes of writing, including the writing of fiction and poetry. The focus on the writing process will allow students to develop and strengthen their writing through techniques that emphasize prewriting, drafting, revising, and peer editing (W5) while producing quality writing samples that are appropriate to task, purpose and audience (W4). Class readings will expose students to different writing styles and provide examples of the strategies used by successful authors. Creative Writing offers students the opportunity to explore creative avenues of expression while continuing to improve skills required of a college-and-career-ready student.
