Grado de EE. UU. 4 - 6
This self-paced (video-based) course is comprised of weeks 5-8 of a one-semester (16-week) writing course appropriate for ages 8-13. In this class, students can expect to have fun while learning how to elevate their writing style through grammatical and stylistic devices. Each individual class will focus on a specific aspect of writing. Each assignment will include a checklist that builds over time, and all submitted assignments receive an evaluation with detailed feedback. All classes use a pre-recorded instructor video of 15-20 minutes. Students should pause the video to complete all activities. At the end, students will have a longer activity to complete and submit for feedback. In addition to the video, each week the instructor will post worksheets that review the class material, classwork and homework assignments. The first lesson picks up where Lesson 4 from Building Better Writers Junior Weeks 1-4 left off. At this point, students should be comfortable using a minimum of two adverbs and two adjectives, eliminating specific weak words from writing, and using prepositional phrases and adverbs as sentence openers.

Lesson 5
Lesson 5 combines expository (informational) writing with persuasive writing. In this class, students will use a book review -- not a book report! -- to showcase both forms of writing. Writing a book review allows a student to engage critically with the text by showcasing their understanding of the plot, characters, setting, and conflict, and then by providing their analysis of the highlights and lowlights of the story. Lección 2:
Lesson 6
In this lesson, students will focus on using coordinating conjunctions to join sentences and ideas. Students are also introduced to using a relative clause to extend a sentence and add information. Lección 3:
Lesson 7
Students will practice using subordinate conjunctions this week in addition to coordinating conjunctions. The new addendum to the checklist is to use one of the following words to open a sentence with a dependent clause: after, although, as, because, before, even if/though, if, since, unless, until, when, whenever, wherever, while. Lección 4:
Lesson 8
Back to persuasive writing! This time, student will add to their understanding of how to be persuasive. Previously, they've learned about the concepts of pathos, egos, and logos (emotion, personal experience, and logic). This time, students will focus on another concept of persuasive writing: how to address a counter-argument and include a rebuttal. Otros detalles

Experiencia y certificaciones del docente
Licenciatura desde University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill
My passion -- as well as my professional background -- is writing. Professionally, I hold a B.A. in Journalism from the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill, and I've been published in numerous newspapers and magazines. I've also taught writing and literature classes to students of all ages and abilities.
On a personal note, I have homeschooled all five of my children and taught them all to read and write... and with each it has been a different experience! What's easy for one child is not easy for another. When I teach online, I always remember that it's important to keep learning fun and to incorporate different methods of teaching to reach all my students. Reseñas
