Robin M Posted August 15, 2012 Share Posted August 15, 2012 I'm working on lesson plan which have to give to teacher counselor for our local homeschool charter. Have Saxon Grammar and Writing 7th and Writing with Skill. We have to satisfy certain essay writing requirements: autobiographical narrative, descriptive narrative Expository Essay Persuasive composition Response to lit - plot Reading summaries Fictional Narrative Research report Which I can see Saxon has lessons for. I'm not seeing it at all in WWS. I want to do WWS however. So would it be too much to do both the writing section from Saxon and WWS. At this point, would only be doing saxon writing portion two days a week. Son isn't a great essay writer at all. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

aliall Posted August 16, 2012 Share Posted August 16, 2012 Doing both would be too much for my oldest. We are on Week 11 of WWS and in the middle of Hake 5. Could you figure out which ones are included in WWS and just cover those sections of Hake that don't overlap. From what we have covered so far, I think each of the following are covered early on in WWS and if you take the sections where the outlining research has been done for them, you might even be able to make a case for the research report. descriptive narrative Expository Essay Response to lit - plot Reading summaries Fictional Narrative Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ellie Posted August 16, 2012 Share Posted August 16, 2012 Wait...isn't that *Hake* Grammar and Writing? :confused: I'd do one or the other. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think I would only do the Saxon writing that covered things not covered in WWS. Kim Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Robin M Posted August 17, 2012 Author Share Posted August 17, 2012 Thanks. I think I'm being totally blind or was feeling overwhelmed yesterday. Just wasn't seeing the individual parts in WWS that covered each section. Guess I need to sit down, with some uninterrupted time, and figure it out.
