IEW カリキュラムを使用してカナダの歴史について書く (パート 1)

I offer a 2-part course on Canadian-based writing using the curriculum from IEW.    This is the first of the 2-part course.  By taking both courses throughout the school year, you will cover all of the lessons in the book. 
-------------------------------------------------------------

Dive into history to learn about Canadian history while we use source texts to learn how to write from notes, retell stories, summarize references, and learn to write from pictures.  Because this curriculum is sequential and builds upon structure, we will cover the first 5 units of the IEW methods before moving into part 2 of the course, offered after this course is completed.

Throughout these lessons, we will be playing with words to "dress-up" our writing, using descriptive adjectives, strong verbs, adverbs, sentence openers, and more to add interest.

During class, we will model and write key word outlines, play games that reinforce vocabulary and style, and will understand how each writing unit comes together.

Homework is required and is assigned after each class to incorporate both the writing method and style (dress-ups).  I encourage students to go through a process given in class as they complete their homework, and then they will submit their final papers to me.  I will return papers with both positive and constructive feedback, not a letter grade.  Students will be writing from a checklist, so students and parents will know exactly what is required for each assignment.

Vocabulary and literature suggestions will be given so students can use these to connect to their writing.    

No prior experience with IEW is required. 

****Students must purchase the book below to participate in this class, as all assignments come from the book. Please be sure you are attaining the 2nd edition, as it is not compatible with past editions.  I am unable to reproduce anything from the books for student use.*****
