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.
At Read, Write, Explore in February and March 2024, we will be reading When the World Went Dark (Jane de Suza), An Alien in the Jam Factory (Chrissie Sains) and The Very Glum Life of Tootoolu Toop (Stuti Agarwal). Click on the book titles for an outline of what we will do as we read each one.
Dates: 01 February to 12 March 2024
Online interactions: Tuesdays and Thursdays, 4:30 to 5:15 pm
Age-group: 9 and 10 years
Early Bird Fee: ₹4,500
Fee: ₹5,000 (includes the books if you register from India before 23 January)
