Make stories using all of your senses. This writing workshop emphasizes children's ideas. They will build, sketch, and cut and paste their ideas using unconventional creative materials; then find the words and writing conventions that support what they really want to say. Children will learn new techniques for getting inspired and bringing their ideas to paper. At the end of this week-long creative writing workshop, children will hand-make a bound book to bring home.Instructor: Jennifer Rose06/26 to 06/30 5 half days Monday-Friday 9:00am-12:00pm $250/camp Location: 15320 NW Central Dr. Ste D6 Room 1This is the 1st camp out of 6 Academic Advance camps for grade 3-5 in Summer.

Instructor: Shilpa Sharma; Adley Robbins06/26 to 06/30 5 Monday-Friday 9:00am-12:00pm $250/camp Location: 15320 NW Central Dr. Ste D6 Room 2Literary reading skills are above basic reading skills (outline meaning) and key reading skills (summary scanning) to the point where we are grasping complex texts in all their complexity during reading. It is reading between lines in order to discover levels of meaning and develop complex interpretations.
In this class, students will:
(1) Review Basic Reading (imagining, responding, skimming)
(2) Learn Reflective Reading (selecting, scanning, tracking)
(3) Learn Analytical Reading (Interpreting, analyzing)
(4) Write a critical analysis style essay
(5) Build up vocabulary throughout reading
(6) Form up their unique critical essay writing style with correct logical structure and grammar.
In this one week camp, the instructor will lead students to read at least one book, plus shorter pieces or chapters from books in a variety of genres.For essay writing, the first step of critical writing is to take notes on evidence, document quotes and paraphrases while reading. The purpose of critical analysis is not merely to inform, but also to evaluate the worth, utility, excellence, distinction, truth, validity, beauty, or goodness of something from the books that students are reading. We will instruct students to write those notes down on a notebook.
The second step of critical writing is to design a clear logical structure of an essay. Students need to design/plan their essay with clear logical flow before start writing critical essay.
During the revising process, we will check the logical structure, information, interpretation, evaluation of the text, and eliminate grammar errors.
