Course Description

Middle-graders (ages 8 to 12) are the most passionate readers of all. Now fluent in reading, they delve into books with a hunger for touching pathos, wild humour, and eye-widening surprise. In this course we will explore how the great range of possibilities in middle grade novels (short or long, realistic, fantastic, historical, solemn or side-splitting) all require the same elements to capture an audience—relatable characters and engrossing narratives.

Learning Outcomes

  • A solid understanding of what makes a successful middle-grade novel
  • A full chapter outline based on your own original idea
  • Approximately 20 or more first-draft pages from several scenes as well as an opportunity for revising

This course may be applied towards the SCS Certificate(s) in
