Attention Child Authors!
Have you ever wanted to write your very own book? This summer you can! Chaplain Publishing will be offering a Book Writer’s Boot Camp for kids who have completed grades 1-5. Here is a sample of what you will get to do.
-
Invent a hero and villain
- Identify a crazy conflict
- Develop a wacky plot line
- Advise fellow recruits on their book
- Publish your own book
Book Writer’s Boot Camp will be held at Southcrest Baptist Church (3801 S. Loop 289) from 10:00 a.m. to 12:00 p.m. on Tuesdays and Thursdays from July 16 through August 8.
To ensure personalized instruction, there are a limited number of spaces available, so e-mail christi@chaplainpublishing.com TODAY to reserve your spot.
Price: $50 per child for the course
Book Writer’s Boot Camp is 8 sessions of pure book writing fun! Recruits will earn badges as they complete activities in each of the 8 sessions: genre, hero, villain, conflict, setting, plot, analysis, and chapter lists. They will emerge from this course with all the ingredients needed for their very own book. Recruits can be girls or boys who have completed grades 1-5.
Along the way they will learn grammar rules, practice editing, brainstorm with other recruits, and most of all, laugh. Participating in this course will allow recruits to practice important reading and writing skills needed for state tests. Best of all, recruits will develop a love of writing.
Boot camp recruits should wear comfy clothes and bring their creativity. All other supplies will be provided including water bottles. Please e-mail christi@chaplainpublishing.com if you have any other questions.
