This semester-long class is designed to introduce writers to the four basic types of writing (expository, descriptive, narrative, and persuasive) in an engaging and supportive way. Each week, students work on fun writing activities to energize their inner voices and get their creative juices flowing!

During this course, students consistently practice working through the writing process with lots of modeling and feedback. Mini lessons focus on the six traits of writing: purpose, organization, voice, word choice, sentence fluency, and mechanical correctness. Students learn the power of their words and build confidence and skills while writing paragraphs and essays on high-quality topics from each genre. Each assignment is followed by detailed, personalized feedback on making their writing smoother, clearer and more interesting. This class will help your student propel their work forward! 

Additional Course Objectives Include:
Writers… 
  • use conventions as they write to make their message clear.
  • use details to help their readers experience their work.
  • ensure that their writing is focused and stays on topic.
  • organize their ideas in ways that are appropriate to their  purpose.
  • engage in the writing process by employing the following five steps in composing every paper: prewriting, drafting, revising, proofreading, publishing.
  • gain tools to become writers beyond this class
​Outside Classwork: Students write and revise each week. Depending on ability level, students should expect to spend approximately 1-1.5 hours a week
