| Program Description | The Intuitive Writing Project will host weekly 1.5 hour classes for 3rd-5th grade girls. Minimum number of students = 6; maximum number of students = 12.
The Intuitive Writing Project is a transformative arts program, a unique hybrid of creative writing class and personal development program. As girls write their stories and assert their voice, they discover who they are, who they want to become, and how to find their own answers.
On a grander level, the world we live in is shaped by the stories that are written. Through the process of telling our story, we learn the value and power of our own perspective, giving our voice power that can lead to personal and social change.
This writing and sharing method has additional benefits such as showing each student that their words matter and they matter, and that listening is a way of showing respect. By providing only positive feedback, students begin to embody the truth that they are a writer and that their words matter.
