This class is a journey through beloved worlds of magic, bravery, and unforgettable characters, like those found in Harry Potter, The Hobbit, Percy Jackson & the Olympians, Star Wars and more. We'll explore the classic hero's journey, examining the qualities that make a hero, the challenges they face, and the villains they must overcome. But this isn't just about reading and discussion! We'll bring these stories to life through creative projects. Design your own hero's emblem, design fantastical creatures, write and perform short scenes, and even create maps of imaginary lands. Through these hands-on activities, alongside writing prompts and engaging discussions, we'll delve into themes of good versus evil, courage, friendship, and the power of believing in yourself. Unleash your imagination and create your own heroes, villains, and fantastical creatures as we celebrate the magic of storytelling and the enduring power of fantasy.
