The Case of the Secret Library: Mystery Stories

What do Nancy Drew, Scooby-Doo, and Blue’s Clues all have in common? They all feature famous mystery-solving teams and countless marvelous mysteries! In this hands-on workshop, students will create the twists and turns of their own mystery stories, from chasing down clues, to crafting haunting lore, to dreaming up a rag-tag group of meddling kids, and even creating their own upbeat chase music! Together, no stone will be left unturned, and no scooby snack left uneaten as we get to the bottom of each case!

About Write Away Workshops

We know that young authors have the power and imagination to go beyond the five-paragraph essay. In Write Away Workshops, students explore a multitude of genres and subjects, and develop their voices as writers. Groups write freely and participate in imaginative writing activities and lessons. Young writers leave each workshop with a piece to be proud of, as well as a newfound understanding of the topic and new friends.
