IEW 커리큘럼을 사용하여 중세 역사에 대한 글쓰기(2부)

THIS IS  THE SECOND PART of my course on Medieval History-Based Writing using the curriculum from IEW.    We will be beginning the book at Lesson 16.  

-------------------------------------------------------------
As we continue our journey through Medieval times, our writing is going to gain even more description as we focus on summarizing multiple references (as we do with research),  Inventive Writing, Critiques, and Formal Essays.  Our focus will be on the lessons introducing new stylistic techniques and/or methods.

Each of these writing structures will be developed using material from the book covering topics such as knights and chivalry, medieval amusements, time travel, and important people (to name a few).

Because this curriculum is sequential and builds upon structure, you will already need experience with the first 5 units of IEW methods because we will not be spending time going back to those initial units.  In this class, we will cover final 4 units for the IEW methods.

As we write, students will be experimenting with even more "dress-ups", sentence openers, and figurative language, to add style and interest to their topics.   These will all be outlined in the weekly assignments.

During class, we will use discussion, modeling, games, and other learning techniques to reinforce vocabulary and style, while expanding our writing skills.

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.    

Students MUST have prior experience with Units 1-5 of IEW and/or have completed my first class on Writing About Medieval Times
