Full Curriculum Classes

Our Full Curriculum Creative Writing courses are comprehensive, per-recorded semester classes for middle and high school writers.

Available in Beginner, Intermediate, and Advanced levels, each course combines engaging video lessons, written instruction, creative activities, and writing assignments to help students build strong storytelling skills step by step.

From character and plot to dialogue, description, and revision, students will develop a solid foundation in creative writing while working at their own pace.

Elective Classes

Our electives are pre-recorded classes designed for students who want to sharpen specific writing skills or follow a special interest on their own schedule.

Each course includes a series of short, engaging mini-lessons, clear written explanations, creative activities, and focused writing prompts—no peer editing required! Students can revisit lessons as often as needed while developing targeted storytelling techniques.

With electives on everything from outlining and plagiarism to writing a book, these shorter courses offer a fun, low-pressure way to level up your writing—one skill at a time.

What parents are saying about WordPlay…

  • “This is an absolutely fantastic class. My daughter is a very reluctant writer - until we found this class! She loves this class and is always is so excited to show me her writings after class."

    Celine G.

  • “This was a fantastic class. My son had a great time, and it challenged him to make strong progress from week to week. He's had Jackson as an instructor for other classes for quite some time, and the quality of the instruction is top notch. Highly recommend!"

    Kathryn W.

  • "My teen has taken many WordPlay Writing Co. classes and has always had positive experiences. In this class, he finds Saundra's feedback to be helpful and describes her as kind and inclusive."

    Sabrina P.

  • "You can’t go wrong with a Jackson Pearce-led class. I have zero doubts that Ms. Pearce has helped my child go from a kid who LOVED reading, but HATED writing to a kid who now finds writing to be a need."

    Janet C.

  • "Saundra Mitchell has been an incredible teacher for my children. She’s patient, supportive, and always brings such a positive energy to her classes. My kids said she was very enthusiastic—they felt truly encouraged and motivated to keep improving their writing."
