Ag smaoineamh mar scríbhneoirí
Sa cheardlann ghréasáin seo beidh plé á dhéanamh againn ar cad iad na toscaí inspreagtha agus rogha a chuirimid ar fáil do dhaltaí. Déanfar forbairt ar sin leis an saorscríbhneoireacht agus anuas air sin, ar na seánraí scríbhneoireachta a mhúineadh. Déanfar iniúchadh ar aistriú scileanna agus ar conas cruinneas a chur chun cinn i slí páiste-lárnach. Tagrófar don aiseolas agus aischothú, maraon leis an measúnú mar chuid den cheardlann chomh maith.
