Explore the flexible and creative WriteShop, an ideal homeschool writing program for teens! The 5th edition features faith-neutral content, a streamlined introduction, updated student instructions, and student/teacher checklists, along with some updated lesson content. WriteShop's lessons focus on descriptive, informative, and narrative writing, guiding students through brainstorming, drafting, editing, and revision skills. Students learn to craft descriptive and informative paragraphs, as well as first- and third-person narratives, honing important techniques of style and self-editing. They are encouraged to select vivid descriptive words and vary their sentences to create strong paragraphs. Each lesson guides students to learn and practice new skills, apply them to their current writing project, and revise their composition several times, resulting in a polished paper. Students write one composition over a two-week period, revising it twice. The exercises are designed to be approached consecutively, incrementally building upon previously learned material. Students methodically edit their papers using a Writing Skills Checklist tailored to the individual lesson. WriteShop II features advanced writing concepts for students in grades 8-12. It's recommended that all students in Grades 6-10 begin with WriteShop I; juniors and seniors can start with WriteShop II unless they need remedial help. Lessons may take up to an hour per day. At the pace of one lesson in two weeks, students will finish WriteShop II in one year. Please note that the teacher's edition (sold separately) is required to use this program.
