Controlled Chaos as a Storytelling Medium
Tuesday January 7, 2025 8:30am - 11:05am PST
This session will introduce students to the joy of spontaneous storytelling. The class will begin with a brief discussion on the value and history of stories. Each student will then independently write a one-minute scene, entirely unconnected to the other students' scenes.

Afterward, the class will come together to collaboratively weave these chaotic scenes into a cohesive story. If time permits, the session will culminate in a performance of their new masterpiece.

This engaging session will help students develop their writing and storytelling skills, foster creativity, and exercise new ways of thinking—all while having a lot of fun.
