Course Outline:

Creative Writing 12

Note: Although this is a Grade 12 4-credit course and counts toward graduation, students will still need to take either “English Studies 12” or “English First Peoples 12” in order to graduate. 

Creative Writing 12 provides an opportunity for students to create texts and take these through editing processes that will have them writing with increased sophistication and independence.

Learners will broaden their previous writing experiences and deepens skills in introspection, reflection, and intention in the writer’s use of language and organization of stories.

Learners will assess written and oral story to help them understand the power of creative storytellers to help us understand the community, the world and the self. They will then practice several different forms of writing in creative non-fiction, memoirs, poetry, the short story.

Through practice, students will learn to take risks and persevere as they prepare to write independent pieces that will be polished to a publishable quality for real life purposes.
