Summer 2026

Incoming 5th and 6th Grade

If this is your first summer with us, welcome!

Summer at The Wordshop is all about fun. Imagination. Blasting off into uncharted worlds and making new friends along the way. Good readers make good writers, so we start with book clubs that teach kids the foundations of the literary analysis skills they’ll be using in high school and college. Just don’t tell them they’re learning, okay?

Writing Classes

  • Story Scribblers

    Learn the basics of storytelling as you bring the characters and worlds living in your head to life on paper.

  • Fairy Tale Castle

    Fracturing Fairy Tales

    What if the Big Bad Wolf was a vegetarian who played in a metal band on the weekends?

  • Fantastic Fan Fiction

Book Clubs

  • Three Thumbs Up: Mrs. Kristin's Faves

    Three genres, two novels, one graphic novel. Let’s go!
