About Rio

Hi! I'm Rio, a teen poet, writer, photographer, and creative writing tutor from British Columbia. I have a passion for storytelling and helping younger writers develop their creativity and confidence.

My work often explores themes of nature, emotion, and mental health through vivid imagery and descriptive language. As both a writer and photographer, I draw inspiration from forests, oceans, wildlife, and the changing seasons.

I enjoy working with younger students on poetry, short stories, descriptive writing, and creative exercises. My goal is to create a supportive environment where writers can experiment, grow their skills, and discover their unique voice.

Whether you're just starting to write or looking to improve your storytelling, I'd love to help you on your creative journey.

About the lesson

1. Warm-Up (5–10 minutes)

Give a quick prompt and let them write freely.

Examples:

"A crow lands on your windowsill carrying a note..."
"The forest suddenly starts talking..."
"You find a key buried under a tree."

Tell them there are no wrong answers.

2. Mini Lesson (10 minutes)

Teach one writing skill.

Week 1: Show, Don't Tell

Instead of:

"The forest was scary."

Try:

"Twisted branches clawed at the moonlit sky."

Ask them:

What do you see?
Hear?
Smell?
3. Practice Activity (15 minutes)
Description Challenge

Give them an object, place, or picture.

Examples:

A stormy beach
A black crow
An abandoned cabin
A snowy mountain

Challenge:

Describe it using all five senses.

4. Main Writing Time (15–20 minutes)

Prompt:

Write a story about a mysterious animal that appears in the woods.

Help them:

Create a character
Create a setting
Create a problem
5. Sharing & Feedback (5–10 minutes)

Ask:

What is your favorite sentence?
What image stands out most?
What could be expanded?

Always start with something positive.
