Explore the art of storytelling with our Planning and Structuring workshop, where students delve into the age-old debate of plotting versus pantsing. While some students may prefer the spontaneity of “pantsing,” writing as they go, others may opt for the structured approach of plotting, meticulously planning story arcs. In this workshop, students are introduced to renowned storytelling frameworks like The Hero’s Journey and the Three-Act Structure, using beloved tales such as Harry Potter, Star Wars, and The Lion King as guiding examples.

Planning and Structuring empowers students to craft compelling narratives by plotting their story arcs before diving into writing. By integrating Makey Makey, students engage in deeper, more creative thinking and unlock opportunities for valuable feedback.

This workshop supports a variety of essential skills, including sequencing, collaboration, and critical thinking. Students explore the intricacies of electrical circuits, investigating conductors and insulators while learning to connect systems for data exchange. Additionally, they refine language skills by carefully selecting descriptors for character traits and discussing personal qualities, fostering nuanced character development.
