Writing Help - IEW Writing Instruction for Ages 8-16 (Semester)

In this class, the learner will be instructed in the IEW writing method and receive feedback concerning their writing assignments.  Each class will involve instruction in an aspect of the IEW method and may include grammar/spelling rules, editing, and writing practice.  Style techniques will be introduced throughout the class meetings as the learner is ready for them.  Care will be made to scaffold the lesson as needed and to tailor the instruction to the learner.

Only one student book is required.
*Structure and Style for Students may be purchased by the learner.  The learner may watch the videos provided by IEW, and we will go over the assignments during our class together.  Current options include Level A-Year 1, Level B-Year 1, and Level C-Year 1. 
* The IEW Writing Source Packet can be purchased by the learner from IEW. (The book version is available from IEW for purchase. The PDF version is only available through the IEW premium membership. Premium membership trials are offered occasionally by IEW.)  I will tailor the instruction to the learner and assign exercises based on texts from the packet.
* The learner may bring to the class their particular writing assignments from another source for us to work through together.
* If the learner prefers, I can choose sources for our writing based on the materials I have developed for other classes.

NOTE: Please specify in the classroom which IEW book from the options listed above that you own or will be purchasing.  If you have an assignment to work through, please upload it to the classroom.  If a preference is not stated, we will begin with a Unit 1, Level A source text that I provide.
