THIS BATCH IS SOLD OUT!

Read, Write, Explore is an ongoing reading and creative writing programme for ages nine and ten. During the twelve online interactions of each edition, we read excerpts from three books. Unlike at my book club for ages seven and eight, we devote less class time to reading aloud and more to activities and writing. Additionally, one class every two weeks focuses on creative writing. Do note that this means that even though we read excerpts in class, most of the reading happens independently!
This programme is designed for children who want just a taste of creative writing but are not (yet) excited about writing regularly. In some ways, it is the best of both worlds–the joy of reading and the fun of creative writing–without the editing and polishing that writing requires. If you are ready to take the plunge and want a more intensive creative writing programme, click here!
At Read, Write, Explore in April and May 2024, we will be reading The Misadventures of a Diamond Thief (Lubaina Bandukwala), Bat and the End of Everything (Elana K. Arnold) and The Curious Case of the Sweet and Spicy Sweetshop (Nandini Nayar). Click on the book titles to read outlines of what we will do as we read.
