Escritura de verano, estilo IEW

*Note: This is the first of two summer writing courses. The Summer Writing series can now cover two summers for young writers. 

Using the Institute for Excellence in Writing (IEW) writing methods including key word outlines and style techniques, learners will be guided through writing exercises with summer themes.  Each week's class will open with an icebreaker question followed by a brief grammar or style lesson.  A group writing exercise will introduce the structure and theme of that week's writing exercise.  Time to begin the individual writing challenge will be given during class so that questions may be asked and immediate feedback will be given.  The end of each week's class will be set aside for learners to share their writing with the class should they choose to do so.

Learners may submit their writing challenges to me each week via Outschool messaging to receive editing and/or feedback.  Learners will have an opportunity each week to present their in-progress work in class. Presenting is encouraged but not required.  Learners should come to class with writing supplies for individual writing time.   Classes will be recorded for learners who will need to miss occasionally due to flexible summer schedules. (Note, Outschool policy requires that a learner attend a live class before any recordings can be accessed.)
