FALL After-School Writing Classes for young writers, ages 7-13. 4-5:30pm!Albany Middle School English teacher, Abby Skrivan, MA, offers these engaging, supportive after-school classes with the aim of making writing fun! Participants will develop and deepen their mastery of the writing process in small, collaborative groups. They will take part in a wide range of writing exercises, including cooperative games, poetry, story writing and peer editing. Students will explore their ideas through writing and develop their skills at refining and polishing a finished piece. Revised pieces will be published in a magazine which students can take home at the culmination of this five-week session! Note: students who attended in the summer of 2025 or to previous after-school classes are encouraged to attend! Each session will have a different focus and we will build on previous skills. These classes are designed for both the enthusiastic and the reluctant writer!
