Class Experience

US Grade 3 - 5
In our IEW Adventures in Writing class, students explore creative and structured writing techniques through engaging activities and step-by-step lessons. They learn to craft strong paragraphs using keyword outlines, develop their storytelling skills, and apply style techniques like "dress-ups" to enhance their writing. This class encourages collaboration, with students sharing their stories, ideas, and dressups and receiving feedback from the teacher. By the end of the course, everyone will gain confidence in organizing their thoughts and expressing themselves clearly, while having fun along the way!
