The Mythic Journey…Where are the helpers? Perhaps so many in this novel, they don’t fit. My students would benefit. They want to write because writing allows them to take their journey and tell their story. In public school, I would guess that most English teachers focus on writing essays to learn how to write. I think a little different. Learning to write begins in a deeper place. I want them to love writing and believe in their writing as I do. In order for students to connect, the prompt must be relevant to their experience. The ability to write an essay can be taught. The ability to write a great essay, unfolds after the student becomes a writer. Actually, the two become one. Remember the wind, and then feel the wind…all of the other senses will follow.
