Project for A-Level Creative Writing but can be modified to any year or ability. Plan: You must decide on 1 genre and 1 activity/idea. You must plan what topic you will focus on (that is up to you; I won’t give specific examples). You must create a piece of creative writing that showcases your abilities and also can be used as an example of a genre or text type. Next week (hopefully!) a room will be free for computers. We will then type up and publish our work. Be ready to spend most of the lesson on the computers. Next term, we will read and use the resources you have made to help us learn about a particular genre or idea.
