HollyDay Posted June 10, 2009 Share Posted June 10, 2009 something else. I am talking about 8th grade. CW and WriteShop are write out (pun intended). We finished Jump In but I am not ready to leave writing instruction behind. How about Wordsmith Craftman or Jensen's? Or anything else??? Thanks!!

Kim in SouthGa Posted June 11, 2009 Share Posted June 11, 2009 After MUCH deliberation, I just ordered Put That in Writing for my 8th grade ds. I went back and forth and back and forth and back and forth about IEW. I saw that someone else here uses PTIW and decided to give it a try. It looks really good from the samples. By the way, I found it used for quite a bit cheaper. hth, Kim We also used Jump In for 7th, but hit a major road block at the research paper and put it aside.

Lori D. Posted June 11, 2009 Share Posted June 11, 2009 You might also post on the high school board for some great "been there done that" replies. Here are some past threads on experience with the writing programs you mentioned, plus threads on ideas/experiences with writing programs after using Jump In. BEST of luck in finding what works well for your family! Warmest regards, Lori D.
