Program Details
Stage 1: Model building with bricks and elements, sharing their models, and listening to others. This Build-&-Share promotes planning, organizing of ideas, and listening to others’ stories. This pre-writing interaction enhances learners’ social, emotional, and psychological development in making sense of themselves and their world.
Stage 2: Process and write their first draft guided by Six BRICKS to break down the BEGINNING-MIDDLE-END components, to better organize the flow of their composition. This helps to increase working memory and attention before writers deviate from their original plan and end up rushing off their conclusion without adhering to the beginning of their story.
Stage 3: Writers will edit their work with close awareness of their plot, making necessary changes to the logical consistency as their working memory holds out. By this stage, they will delve further into developing characterization using narrative techniques in organizing their paragraphs; polish up with literary devices to enhance the elegance of language used through the writing.
Sessions: 20 sessions
