Workshop Description Everybody Has A Story…
In this workshop, students continue to explore the connections between life and stories. Working from a set of story prompts the students are guided to imagine a particular time in their lives. Together we question, notice, verbalize, free write and/or make graphic representations of stories we draw from these memories. We use our 5 senses and the 5 journalistic questions to find the main elements for our stories. If there is time, students are introduced to some revision techniques for dynamic new beginnings, more active middles and satisfying conclusions. The same techniques may be used with a first draft and this process becomes a revision workshop
