Let's End the World! | Small Online Class for Ages 10-14

Build a collaborative fictional world with your classmates, destroy it in an apocalypse of your choosing, and then write about it.

Hey, nerdy parents of Tumblr. I'm in dire need of at least one more student for my Sun, Feb 23 - Mar 15 (3-4pm EST) section of Let's End the World! While most of my classes can run with only a single student, the collaborative nature of the Let's End/Rebuild the World! classes really needs 2+ (and more is better). If you're trying to encourage your student to do more writing, this class is great for that, with lots of feedback from peers and from me. Plus, we come up with some of the wildest ways to end the world!
