This provides enough material for a full semester of a Creative Writing class. This course is designed for 10-12 grade students, but could easily be adapted for 6-9 grade students. Additionally, if more time is spent in class on writing assignments than is spent as homework, this curriculum would be enough for a whole year.

This course curriculum includes a course overview with a suggested timeline. It also includes multiple units focusing on different skills used in creative writing. Each unit includes instructions, example texts, practice assignment, and a writing assignment. Rubrics and peer editing activities are also included.

Units include: action writing, characterization, descriptions, dialogue, screenwriting, editing, flash fiction, mood/tone, narrative nonfiction, and poetry. Additional resources are included which offer additional assignment opportunities and suggestions.
