I can do up to 2 sessions per visit Larry Hayes’ Creative Writing Workshop is a hyper-interactive session in which the whole group creates (and acts out) a unique new story. We first explore what stories/books/movies the children enjoy and what makes them good. Having established some common themes we create interesting characters and choose children to play heroes, baddies, sidekicks and mentors Together as a group we create and act-out-in-real-time a live action story with opportunities for everyone to get involved making decisions and shaping the story. We discuss what worked well and areas for improvement with the option for children to write a new (improved) version in a later lesson with the teachers. Requires a white board or giant pad."What an amazing morning the children of our local primary school had, creating characters and developing stories, with the fun and dynamic 'Larry Hayes!' Aldbourne Children's Book GroupLarry had our Year 4 children utterly enthralled. A wonderful combination of knowledge, experience and enthusiasm he inspired the children, gathered their ideas and expertly modelled the crafting of an amazing story. No mean feat, and that he took the children with them on this journey is all the more impressive.
