Writing About Ancient History Using IEW® Curriculum (Part 1)
Class experience
US Grade 4 - 7
Beginner - Intermediate Level
This is the first of a 2-part course on Ancient History-Based Writing using the curriculum from IEW. This is the first of the 2-part course. By taking both courses, you will cover most of the lessons in the book. Our focus will be on the lessons from the textbook introducing new stylistic techniques and/or methods. ------------------------------------------------------------- Are you intrigued by the people and civilizations from long ago? Dive into history to learn about each of these...
Students will improve their writing style through the use of dress-ups, along with outlining, paragraph writing, and story writing, as they use source texts and pictures related to an ancient history theme.
I am an IEW Registered Instructor and have taught several IEW-related courses over the past 7 years in person and online through Outschool. I enjoy sharing in the enthusiasm of writing using the IEW method.
Homework Offered
Homework is required and is assigned after each class to incorporate both the writing method and style (dress-ups). I encourage students to go through a process given in class as they complete their homework, and then they will submit their final papers to me. I will return papers with both positive and constructive feedback, not a letter grade. Students will be writing from a checklist, so students and parents will know exactly what is required for each assignment.2 - 4 hours per week outside of class
Assessments Offered
No letter grades are given, but scores are based on a checklist provided in each lesson. Families who wish to used these as grades can convert the score totals into percentages and then use letter grades based on their own systems of grading.Grades Offered

Depending on your child, students may need parental help each week with their homework assignments. At times they may need a listening ear as they retell their outline to you in their own words before turning their outline into paragraphs.
We will be using the 6th edition of the student book. This is the edition that was printed in December of 2020. No other editions of the book will be compatible: https://iew.com/shop/products/coming-soon-ancient-history-based-writing-lessons-student-book-only
