Night Elf Posted July 30, 2010 Share Posted July 30, 2010 One of the college requirements in Georgia is to have a year of Advanced Composition. Claire is using Keystone and the only writing courses they have are Business Writing and Creative Writing. I don't believe either of those would qualify. Any idea on how to approach this core requirement? Can someone recommend an online course or a program that might suffice? I am not confident in writing at all so she would definitely need guidance outside the home. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Michelle in AL Posted July 30, 2010 Share Posted July 30, 2010 The Lively Art of Writing is excellent and only about $7. Could you use that and have an outsider grade/critique it? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Does it include assignments, or is it just a reference how-to type book? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Michelle in AL Posted July 30, 2010 Share Posted July 30, 2010 It includes assignments that break down the writing of a persuasive essay into small do-able chunks. Each chapter has several short answer ?'s based on the reading, one or two writing assignments and some vocab work. I changed some of the writing topics to make them more appealing to my girls.
