New Writing Classes

Learning how to write well is all about practicing the art of writing.  Just as a pianist will not achieve musical success without practicing the piano, a writer will not achieve writing success without practicing writing.  The more a student is exposed to structured writing lessons, the more the student will improve in their writing process. To help give students multiple opportunities to practice their writing, we have several different Writing Workshops available:

Mondays 8:00-9:00am (homeschoolers)
Mondays 3:30-4:30pm
Tuesdays 2:00-3:00pm
Wednesdays 10:00-11:00am (homeschoolers)
Wednesdays 4:00-5:00pm
Saturdays 12:00-1:00pm

These workshops are structured for the student who can already form a paragraph and is ready to work on writing multi-paragraph essays, stories, and summaries.  Lessons will rotate, so students can enter the workshop at any time.  Writing Workshops will focus on the construction of the following:

*Planning, Drafting, Editing, and Revising for Expository Essays 
*Planning, Drafting, Editing, and Revising for Narratives
*Planning, Drafting, Editing, and Revising for Responses to Literature
*Planning, Drafting, Editing, and Revising for Summaries

Writing Workshops are $70 per month... spaces fill quickly... maximum of 6 students per class.
