Creative Writing 101
I was the go-to Creative Writing teacher at my school. When my wife needed an assignment that was a bit more creative, she'd come to me. When other teachers at my school wanted to change things up a bit in their classes, they'd steal one of my ideas. Some of your colleagues may have used some of my lessons, since these assignments were freely available online on Educabana.com until fairly recently. However, I realized that assignments with thousands of hits online provide a good indication of va

Creative Composition Class
During my first year of teaching, I realized that some very bright kids didn't want to do the work I was assigning. Some of them went out of their way to do exactly the opposite of what I was trying to require. I understood those kids, and I felt like those kids at every staff meeting.
However, the school said every kid had to pass Composition 12. Many were not passing, and the school saw an opportunity with a new, creative-thinking teacher, so Creative Composition class was created (with a lo
