EKS Posted September 27, 2009 Share Posted September 27, 2009 The teacher's book just describes the big picture. If you've read WTM then you pretty much understand the philosophy. The workbook can easily be used alone. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Heather in WI Posted September 27, 2009 Share Posted September 27, 2009 I think you would need the teacher's book if you were going to teach a level for which a workbook isn't available yet. But other than that, you don't *need* it. I bought it and like it for the big picture, but now that I'm in the thick of things, I don't refer to it -- I just pick up the workbook each day and go.

siloam Posted September 27, 2009 Share Posted September 27, 2009 Is the teacher's book necessary or can the student workbook be used alone? I only read the hardback when I want to see what is coming before I have bought the next level. Other than that the workbooks totally stand alone. If you want to play catch up with one of your older kids there is 6 weeks of work for all 4 levels in the Hardback, so it makes a nice abbreviated course for an older student.

MeAndTheBoys Posted September 27, 2009 Share Posted September 27, 2009 Thank you both. (but you can't just get the $9.95 Student Pages. I'm sure that's not what you're calling the student workbook; you're probably talking about this: http://www.welltrainedmind.com/store/the-complete-writer-writing-with-ease-workbook-1.html Yes, you can get the workbook without the instructor text: http://www.welltrainedmind.com/store/the-complete-writer-writing-with-ease-instructor-text.html but the Student Pages are not stand-alone.) I really enjoyed the text though, and may actually branch off into making up my own selections after we finish WW2. It is worth reading, if you have the $$ for it-- Betsy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
