Science Fiction Creative Writing Camp 5-7th grades

A great class for students who enjoy science fiction. We will build worlds, create creatures, explore uncharted parts of the world, ride around in space, and so much more. In this class we go over a wide range of science fiction subgenres, some popular, and some newly created.
