Welcome to the Celerity Charter School Jr. Wordsmiths Site.

The Celerity Jr. Wordsmiths is a weekly innovative writing skills worshop where some of the top writers of tomorrow discuss, learn, and practice the principles and craft of writing. The Celerity Jr. Wordsmiths is a cutting edge writing model for pre-secondary school students to learn and hone their skills in the art, technique, and craft of journalism, non-fiction essays, and stories, and topical news issues. The workshop facilitator is author and noted nationally syndicated columnist Earl Ofari Hutchinson.

Now it's my great pleasure to feature the works of the Celerity Jr. Wordsmiths.

Why I want to be a Graphic Designer
Caleb King



Graphic designing has bettered the world. It has also changed me. One reason why I like graphic designing is because I can express myself creatively, and because I can graphic design prop, charaters, and scenery for my book “Devil’s Rose”. I plan to take graphic designing and share my ideas with the world.

I started trying graphic design when I was 9.It all started after I seen my computer teacher. After that I kind of kept to myself. Since then, I developed my graphic skills. Soon after that, I fell in love with it! That’s when I said that’s what I want to do.


Why I Like To Write
Malcolm Jimpson


Writing has shaped the world for thousands of years. Writers whether they realize it or not, have influenced the minds of millions of people. Writing is also a concrete way to be remembered. It’s also the foundation for source of information, whether it is in a book or on paper.

I was inspired to write when I saw a movie called, “Spawn.” I am currently writing a book called, “Devil’s Rose.” I would like to create stories, characters and skits with writing. I also want to use it to express my view points on certain issues and share my creativeness. Writing also allows me to think deeper about the things I plan on doing, it helps me to relax and focus. My favorite type of writing is fiction. One of the reasons I enjoy fictional writing is because I can create a world to my liking. I also enjoy writing persuasive essays and journalism because it allows me informs others about different events going on in the world. Writing is an amazing tool in my opinion.

Writing is one of my favorite pass times and brings be enjoyment. It can also enlighten and strengthen a person’s beliefs. I think it’s a wonderful form of creativity and the further my writing skills are developed the more information and ideas I can share. Most importantly, I want my writings to be detailed, smooth, and straight to the point. I also think word usage is important because it helps to clearly describe the message the writing is trying to convey. Writers have controlled the written history of the world and shall continue to for many decades to come!

Why I like Football
Haskin, Elijah


Football is a very exciting game. Ever since I could remember I loved the sport of football. I mostly liked the fame, money, reputation and adrenalin rush you get from football.

I love being the center of attention. Playing football allows me to do that. Making plenty of touchdowns or blocking people will get me noticed among all of the football players and teams. Making plenty of good choices on the football field gets me noticed by scouts who will send me to the NFL. Soon I will have plenty of money.

I plan to take my skills to a whole new level, to the point where I became rich. If I play football in the NFL I could get plenty money and fame which will bring me reputation.

The better I get in football the more reputation I gain, I would soon become known as a great football player. I shall become an inspiration to football players young and old all over the world. I would soon be an idol to al and be labeled as a person who always followed his dream and never gave up no matter what. My reputation will get me know all over the world.

I love to do anything that gets the heart pumping. Any sport that involves running or exercise is my favorite activity. Football provides just that rush I need. Football keeps me healthy, fit and strong. Being in shape is very important to me.

I have played plenty of sports and football has stood out the most. Just playing football gets me excited in so many ways. Football is more than a sport to me it is an inspiration to be the best of my ability.
