Does your learner struggle to put words on paper? Maybe they do not enjoy writing, but have a lot to say. In this small group class, we will work on organizing thoughts and information into a research paper, editing and “polishing” the final piece. My job is to coach your learner through putting their idea into manageable chunks of information. High frequency words will also be covered as part of the writing process. The course is limited to 3 students to allow each learner to share ideas through conversations and to work through writing together.
Learning Goals
Students will improve their ability to write a simple sentence on a topic of their choice and correctly spell age-appropriate high frequency words.
