Read, Write, Explore – February 2024

January 1, 2024 by Varsha Seshan Leave a Comment

REGISTRATIONS ARE NOW CLOSED FOR THIS EDITION OF READ, WRITE, EXPLORE. Scroll down to learn more about the April 2024 batch.

‘Read, Write, Explore’ is an ongoing programme for ages nine and ten, which combines the concept of a book club with an introduction to creative writing. During the twelve online interactions, we read excerpts from three books and do activities of all kinds. Additionally, one class every two weeks focuses on creative writing. Do note that this means that even though we read excerpts in class, most of the reading happens independently! 

In February and March 2024, we will be reading When the World Went Dark (Vibha Batra), An Alien in the Jam Factory (Chrissie Sains) and The Very Glum Life of Tootoolu Toop (Stuti Agarwal). Classes are held online on Zoom, and there are only nine seats per batch!
