What educators are saying

I have been using this unit with a Grade 8 and 9 class and they have really enjoyed it. The lessons are really easy to use in a mixed abilities classroom.
Great unit, everything you need is included with very little need to create more. The writing prompts were great and I appreciated the editing exercises, many units leave that part out.

    Description

    This 4-Week Creative Writing Unit plan for high school students will inspire your students! A series of creative assignments are tied together with lesson plans as students create more and more developed pieces. Students spend the first two weeks producing a variety of short writing with a focus on the 6 Traits of Effective Writing. Students write Fractured Fairy Tales, Fan Fiction, Reconstructed Memoirs, Flash Fiction, 2-Sentence Stories with Images, and an imitation of Sandra Cisnero's "ELEVEN." The final two weeks of the unit are spent on a deep dive into creative writing - students choose one short assignment to fully develop as they learn about story elements and focus on the six traits. All the prep work is done! All student materials are writeable in Google Drive.

    This Unit Plan Includes:

    ⭐ 20 Lesson Plans

    ⭐ Pacing Calendar

    ⭐ 9 Bundled Resources

    ⭐ Common Core Standards

    ⭐ Fractured Fairy Tales, Fan Fiction, Flash Fiction, Reconstructed Memoir, and more!

    More Details:

    Creative Writing Unit Lesson Plans – 20 unique lesson plans for easy implementation. Lessons are low prep and employ the Reader’s Writer’s Workshop format. The lesson plan format includes an opening lesson, writing workshop, and closing. Each lesson clearly lays out materials needed and homework. IF/THEN charts are included in most lessons to help differentiate and direct students during the writer's workshop.

    Creative Writing Student Documents – This document includes a Six Traits document for secondary students, all student assignments, and revision materials. Please click the PREVIEW above for a close look at the student materials. All student-facing documents are available in Google.

    Creative Writing Bell Ringers – 24 prompts are used as bell ringers, exit tickets, and second teaching points during the unit. Topics are designed to spark creative writing, induce reflection about the writing process, and to guide revision.
