Week One: Idea Explosion

The sheer amount of children who have signed up for Notebook Ninjas has been overwhelming. The group even has a waiting list now. I fear however the eagerness of the current crop of children will leave those on the waiting list disappointed. Today saw the first real chance for the children to come up with ideas for their first piece of Notebook Ninja writing and boy did the ideas come thick and fast. The theme was humour and the children delivered this in abundance. From a man with flying eyebrows to a Narnia inspired piece, the variety and quality from all of these budding authors was brilliant to see. Next week will be based around poetry in all its forms. If the enthusiasm carries on, which I'm sure it will, then we will have yet another catalogue of fantastic writing to enjoy and hopefully display.
