Week 8: Crazy Creations

16/11/2016

0 Comments

 
By Lucy Tirahan
For week 8 the theme was 'crazy creations', for the first task I gave each student a piece of paper and worked on character development. I started by asking a question to which the students wrote their answer down, they then folded paper over their answer and passed their piece of paper to the person to the right. I then asked a different question and the same process followed.

After a piece of paper had returned to its original person, we opened them up and discovered interesting characters. I was trying to encourage the students to add unique and unexpected information when describing characters as it makes it more interesting to read. The series of questions were:

What is their name?
How old are they?
Where do they live?
What is their favourite thing to do on a Sunday?
What is their biggest fear?
When did they last cry?


Below you will see the answers to these questions and how they formed a variety of characters.
The second activity was to create an invention which defeats war and achieves world peace.
With Remembrance Day last week, as a class we discussed the importance of peace around the world.

Create an invention which defeats war & achieves world peace
My Genius Invention
 
It is 11:00. I am here to present my invention to the most powerful people in the world. The point of this is to create World Peace. My machine is a genius one. This is what it does: It shows all the leaders of the world how their country would look when they had a war. This would make them think twice before doing it again. Now it is 12:00. The meeting is over. It is a major success.
​All the leaders and most powerful people in the world have sworn an oath to never create a war again!

My Peace Robot

Guarding robots that use their body to protect their assigned person from anything that tries to harm them. They seek out and destroy every gun, bullet, and any other weapon in the world.
To top it off they give flowers to their master every time  the last one dies.
 
Manav

To keep world peace I would make a drug to make all the world’s politicians positive and a drug for when they are no longer a politician, it will be a drug to make them go back to normal.
The drugs will alter their memories and possibly alter their neurons to change their point of view.

Harsimran

        I stepped into the room, unknowingly. When I realised what I had saw I was horrified, there was silence in the room- my favourite. Not any children.
       I worked really hard, BOOM!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Suddenly, I was somewhere else, I was falling through the world, lonely. I saw that all the people had stopped fighting. I was a genius!
“Muuhhhhhhaaaaaa!!!!!!”
 
Sanjana

Carved into a heart, it beats and beats puffing out rings of love… inside this invention it chugs and chugs and chugs, mixed with antidotes for ISIS to calm down and think, antidotes for Trump to realise that presidency in not attained by racism and hatred, antidotes to help woman gain their true rights and succeed as good as men, antidotes for equality, affection and mercy for everyone, antidotes of humanity and love to everyone and finally, antidotes for thieves and enemies to realise their mistakes and how they’re not perfect, so before pointing out to others look at their self.
The antidote spreads around every nook and cranny of the world, mixing into the air… not a soul to be missed not a creature to be forgotten, to the world and beyond…

    MEET LUCY

    Our Creative Writing Teacher

       I'm a student in year 12   
    who is passionate about writing and hopes to become successful in the industry when I'm older.

    I am lucky to have been provided with many opportunities throughout school to explore this skill and take it further. Writing is often seen as an unstable career but many people have inspired me to stay committed to something I love and to keep my drive, purely because it is with drive and dedication that you can overcome what is deemed impossible.

    I wanted to do something which would inspire younger years to take up creative writing, as I truly believe it is an art that can help you develop many skills and force you to think outside the ordinary.  

    I also believe that younger people have not been provided with a sufficient platform to make themselves heard, this blog is an alternative platform. I now run a creative writing club with Heston West Big Local once a week where I work with students aged 11-14 on creative writing pieces.

    They are all incredibly talented and each individual manages to write from a unique perspective. Each week we will upload their work, I hope you enjoy reading them as much as I enjoy working with them.
