What's included

8 live meetings
6 hrs 40 mins in-class hours
Homework
2-4 hours per week. The student will be required to create an outline from a story, retell the story from the outline, write a rough draft, and complete a final typed paper of the story. Multiple stories will be read, outlined, and rewritten with stylistic techniques. The amount of time spent writing and rewriting a story will depend on the student. However, I estimate 2-4 hours a week working on a story.
Assessment
The student will submit their final typed story to the teacher each week by email. The teacher will review the story and submit a written review to the student. Papers submitted on time will be reviewed. Late papers will not be reviewed. Papers will have due dates.

Summer Boot Camp is an IEW Writing class. This class will meet for 4 weeks twice a week. This class will use the IEW writing program. The IEW program assist students with incorporating stylistic techniques to their writing. In this small group session the student will be presented with writing assignments which will allow them to practice various IEW stylistic techniques. This class will cover unit 1-2 Outlines & Writing from Notes and unit 3 Story Sequence Model for retelling narrative stories, unit 4 Summarizing a Reference, and unit 7 Inventive Writing.

This class may be a great fit for students who require extra practice with their writing skills or students who may want to enhance their writing skills. The IEW program may ease the stress of coming up with a topic to write about because students will be provided with a source to rewrite which will allow them to spend time practicing stylist techniques taught. 

Scope & Sequence
Unit 1-2 Note Making & Outline, Writing From Notes
Unit 3 Retelling Narrative Stories
Unit 4 Summarizing a Reference
Unit 7 Inventive Writing

Note: All final assignments must be typed doubled spaced, Times New Roman #12 font. Assignments must be emailed to the teacher 1 day before class. Assignments will have due dates. Late assignments will NOT be evaluated.

Note: Each learner experience will be different, and I will work toward improving weaknesses.
