2-4 horas por semana. Writers will be assigned between 15-30 minutes of homework each day following their lesson. I strongly recommend that parents set a timer and stop writers at the end of that time from working any further until the next day. This helps keep writer's weekly projects to a manageable length. It also helps develop a love for writing.Evaluación

COURSE OVERVIEW: This FLEX course supports learners with busy schedules by allowing them to complete Monday through Friday assignments at their own pace. It is intended to support and cultivate both a love of writing and essential writing skills. FLEX Writer's Workshop is best suited for writers who are ready for more independent work and responsibility or are working closely with a supervising parent. COURSE STRUCTURE: Monday through Thursday of each week, students will receive a brief, 5-10 minute, mini-lesson in video format. Writers are asked to watch and engage with the lesson as detailed in the lesson. Following the lesson, writers are expected to work for between 15-30 minutes on their assignment each day. I would encourage you to set an end time and stick to it like glue. • On Mondays, students prewrite and create their first draft. • On Tuesdays, students revise their drafts. • On Wednesdays, students edit their work. • On Thursdays, students illustrate their work. • On Fridays, students share their completed work and present it to the class!! COURSE CONTENT: We will be following the OREO (Opinion, Reason, Example, Opinion) method for creating opinion writing pieces. Writers will choose from the following topics each week. *Week 1: The best/worst food is... *Week 2: A best friend is... *Week 3: The best/worst vacation is... *Week 4: The best/worst pet is... CLASSROOM MANAGEMENT & EXPECTATIONS: Due to the nature of the FLEX class, parents are asked to take on more of an active role in their writer's learning and actively monitor their child's completion and submission of assignments. Writers are expected to watch, kindly comment, and ask thoughtful questions of Friday presentation videos. There is so much they can learn from each other and how to cordially participate with each other online through this forum. SUBMITTING WORK: Please submit assignments according to the following schedule: Mondays--Sloppy Copy (1st Draft) Tuesdays--Revised Sloppy Copy (Revised 1st Draft) Wednesdays--Fancy Copy (Final Copy) Thursdays--Pictures (Illustration for Final Copy; Limit 2 please) Fridays--Video Recording of Writer Reading Their Final Copy Monday through Thursday, submissions may be made through the student conversations page. Please attach and submit Friday videos to the class page. FLEX CLASSES: This class is a flex-class so writers are encouraged to commit for the entire 4 week process. COURSE PAYMENT & OUTSCHOOL REFUND POLICY Course fee is $65 per week or $260 in full. From Outschool: All Flexible Schedule classes have a standard refund policy: "Full refund until the class begins, or within 24 hours of purchase (until class starts), then a pro-rated refund based on the number of meetings." COURSE FEEDBACK: Teacher will provide student feedback on Tuesdays and Fridays following class. If you would prefer more frequent feedback, please let me know. I am happy to provide it. COURSE REQUIREMENTS: Incoming students should have beginning to middle of 2nd grade skills. They should be writing simple complete sentences independently. More advanced students, up to the age of 9, are also welcome to polish their skills. Students should be willing to follow basic, classroom instructions and complete work either independently or with active parental monitoring. SPECIAL NEEDS: If your writer has a diagnosed or suspected learning disability, IEP, or 504 in place, please share any pertinent information with me BEFORE class begins. This will help me to prepare and anticipate potential situations beforehand. Thank you.

I completed formal training in Writer's Workshop while teaching 2nd grade and loved implementing it in my classroom! Friday morning story-sharing is the BEST!!! :)
I have since taught this course in a live, on-going format on Outschool for almost 2 years now.
