If you are looking for a class that will help your learner gain confidence as they write about texts while providing them with a firm writing foundation, then this course is for you! The Writing Revolution is a comprehensive writing program that uses the Hochman method to teach learners how to write about the texts that they read. Sentences are the building blocks of writing. Once learners know how to create varied and robust sentences, they can write about anything. This course starts with fundamentals such as identifying fragments and turning them into complete sentences, understanding the boundaries of a sentence, and identifying and writing different sentence types. We then move onto compound and complex sentences, appositives, and sentence expansion. Once students have mastered sentence writing, we will focus on paragraph writing, essay outlining, and writing multi-paragraph essays. This course teaches punctuation and grammar in conjunction with reading comprehension. Every sentence, paragraph, and essay that learners write in this course is in response to stories and articles that we read together. The Writing Revolution method is so powerful because it systematically walks learners through the writing process, allowing them improve their writing skills while working on their reading comprehension at the same time. Each week we will review the material from the previous week to ensure that the learners have mastered that writing skill. Then we will have a min-lesson on a new writing skill. We will read an engaging passage together, and practice responding to the passage using the writing skill covered that week. COURSE OVERVIEW Week 1: Fragments and sentences Week 2: Scrambled sentences and sentence types Week 3: Because, but, so Week 4: Subordinate conjunctions Week 5: Appositives Week 6: Sentence combining Week 7: Expanded sentences and summaries Week 8: Single paragraph outline Week 9: Revising topic sentences and varying vocabulary Week 10: Transitions Week 11: Revising an unelaborated paragraph Week 12: Opening and closing paragraphs Week 13: Multiple paragraph essay outlines Week 14: Essay writing Each lesson builds on previous lessons, so it is important that learners attend classes regularly.

Welcome to class! I am a licensed English and special education teacher who has been working in middle school classrooms for over thirteen years. I love working with students and helping them grow as readers and writers. I teach classes designed to help students build their vocabulary, reading comprehension, and writing skills. I believe that with the right tools and strategies, every student can learn to love reading! When I'm not teaching, I am crocheting, playing with my pets, or watching a musical. I look forward to working with your child this year!
