1. Each learner will need a copy of the Student Resource Packet from IEW. This resource can be purchased as a packet or with an accompanied binder. IEW premium membership included a free download of this resource. https://iew.com/shop/products/student-resource-packet 2. I will be providing PDF files of the public domain stories and poems throughout class. Learners will need to either print the stories and poems in order to annotate on paper or to have an electronic way of marking notes on the files. Please contact me with any questions about this or for any needed suggestions of ways to annotate electronically.
In addition to the Outschool classroom, this class uses:
This class will use third party services. Google forms: Many weekly assignments will use a Google form. Learners may complete the assignment in the form or copy and paste their work from another word processing program. I will not be collecting email addresses or any other personal information. The first question on each form will be the learner’s first name and last initial. All form responses will be deleted from my drive at the conclusion of the class after progress reports have been sent to the parents. Once the google form is submitted, the learner will not have a way to retrieve the submission. Learners may want to save a record of their assignment before hitting submit.
All literature examples will be in the public domain for USA. Composition instruction is based on the Structure and Style method from IEW. (I am an IEW Registered Instructor.)
