The Creative Writer - Boris Fishman : Well-Planned Lessons with great prompts
The Creative Writer is a book series with 4 different levels, each designed to help students cultivate the creative writing skills they need. Each Creative Writer book is designed to help students improve their writing skills. There are exercises and stories in each lesson. The Creative Writer also includes poetry lessons. Boris Fishman wrote the Creative Writer books to help educate students in the art of creative writing. He hoped to increase students' confidence in their work and their awareness of language. Parents can purchase the books online, in either a paperback format or in a kindle format. The books are designed to be done in a mentor/student relationship so parents help guide their children through the lessons and exercises. Parents love how organized the book is. The lessons are well planned out and the exercises prompt lots of thinking from the students themselves. Some parents don't like how short the lessons are. They felt like there weren't as many exercises per lesson as they wished for.
Grades: Middle schoolers and high schoolers
Cost: The Kindle version is around $10. The paperback version is around $17.
