I've Been There!

As a classroom teacher and homeschool mom I faced all these fears and frustrations too!

After graduating with an English/Secondary Education degree and no real course work in step by step processes in teaching writing, I had thirty pairs of eyes looking at me with concern as I asked them to write something on paper for the first time.

The school had no specific writing curriculum and my classroom had a wide varieties of abilities and learning styles. I had a limited time to cover everything I was supposed to complete.

When I started homeschooling and teaching coop classes, I faced the same issues.

That's why after taking note of what worked effectively with all of these students, I put together a step-by-step process in writing a 5 paragraph essay from start to finish.

Using these methods gave my students confidence, saved them time and effort, and gave them a clear process to follow while still allowing them to communicate in their natural voices.

Children communicate their thoughts naturally from a young age and relate stories and information that is important to them as soon as they begin talking. It's when we expect them to put these thoughts down on paper, it becomes intimidating and a self- critic stops them from even attempting to write the first sentence down on paper. It's too overwhelming.

My process breaks the idea of writing a whole essay down into manageable steps without a list of rules, outlining another writer's essay, and notebooks of exercises to get the job done.

I've bought and used tons of different programs with my students and my own children and finally developed an effective system that suited all the students I have taught in my home, classrooms, and tutoring - so you don't have to go through the same process and spend the money I did to find something that works.
