WriteShop 1 Set

Parents love WriteShop! This flexible writing program helps new and veteran homeschoolers alike tackle junior high and high school-level writing with confidence. From brainstorming to final draft, the Teacher’s Manual clearly defines your role in the writing process. You’ll love the detailed teacher lesson plans and step-by-step student instructions WriteShop offers.

WriteShop provides other helpful tools teachers and parents look for in a top-notch writing course. You’ll find all sorts of resources for teaching, editing, evaluating, and grading writing, including individualized checklists, evaluation forms, writing examples, and tips for objective grading.

With WriteShop, you’ll set your teens on a course for success.  Assignments give them a chance to practice various kinds of writing, such as creative, expository, narrative, and persuasive. With each lesson, they learn and practice new skills, apply them to their current writing project, and edit and revise the composition several times. By the end of the lesson–after brainstorming, writing, editing, and revising–they’ll have a polished paper to be proud of!

1. Brainstorming – Topic suggestions, graphic organizers and brainstorming worksheets, and 17 practical word banks help unlock your student’s creative ideas.
2. Writing –  “Learn-practice-do” approach helps new skills become habits. Each engaging lesson presents a new writing skill that is:
   • Introduced as a Skill Builder exercise.
   • Put into practice in the current composition.
   • Applied to future compositions.
   • Additionally, WriteShop focuses on clarity, conciseness, colorful vocabulary, and sentence variety that will add sparkle to dull, ordinary compositions.
3. Self-Editing and Revising – WriteShop tells students exactly what to look for when editing and refining their own work. There’s no guessing involved! Each lesson has its own customized Writing Skills Checklist. When finished with the editing process, students have a polished final draft.
