Writing Programs
Easy Writing 2007
By Wanda Phillips / Isha Enterprises, Inc
Use Easy Writing for lower/upper elementary or for junior high/high school basic skills; this two-leveled book contains level 1 in the beginner and level 2 at the back for optimal usefulness. Designed to help students write specific sentence structures, the lessons will begin to develop written expression skills such as items in a series, subordinate and participial clauses, relative clauses, semicolon construction and more. Two lessons are generally given for each discreet skill with repetition of instruction to allow for lessons to be spaced farther apart without students forgetting what they've learned. Answers are included; 474 pages, softcover.

WriteAtHome Update!
We are almost done with our WriteAtHome class and we
love it. The teacher is wonderful. Comments are to the point,
and there are a lot of them, when needed. Each week a new topic is covered,
the lessons are short but very informative.
Eva-Marie has learned quite a bit, and the best part
is having someone else critique her work has built her self confidence. "I
always thought you went easy on me because you are my Mom, now I know that
other people think I can write, too!" I have enjoyed watching her grow
as a writer and expand her repertory of writing styles. She is taking
the High School level, one semester composition course.
Writing
Program
I have found 2
writing programs I like. While I am not affiliated with either one in any
way, they both allowed me to pass along their information. I have and
use, the Writer's Jungle from brave writer to add excitement to our writing
program, but have taken classes from WriteAtHome.
WriteAtHome
is an innovative middle and high school writing education program combining
21st Century technology with flesh and blood writing experts to offer
challenging and comprehensive composition classes for middle and high school
students.
We offer quarterly, semester, and year-long writing
classes for students in grades 6-12. WriteAtHome is a thorough, personalized
writing development program that can be easily incorporated into any
homeschooling schedule.
Concern for the writing process. Final
results matter, but we believe that effectively teaching writing means focusing
on the process. Every WriteAtHome assignment is written and submitted in stages.
Our writing coaches come alongside students through the process, directing,
suggesting, encouraging and critiquing. The result is not only a quality final
draft, but steadily growing skill in the process of writing.

Brave Writer has both an online
program for elementary, middle school and high school children. The
book a writers jungle is GREAT for all ages. There are MANY other books on
the Brave Writer site that I love. This is a must visit site. There

reading it before buying anything. I love this program so much I own it!
The

family to achieve your goals for writing and language arts throughout your
children's hoomeschooling careers (K-12th grade).
Brave
Writer online classes are uniquely designed with the busy homeschooling
mother in mind. Classes last anywhere from three to six weeks. We offer courses
that address a specific writing need so that you can take one or more over the
course of a school year.
