heritagelearningacademy Posted January 31, 2013 Share Posted January 31, 2013 If you are doing IEW with an 8th grader, did you use B or C? I like that C has more on note taking and report writing. Thoughts? Suggestions? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TarynB Posted January 31, 2013 Share Posted January 31, 2013 My DS10 (5th grade) did the Student Writing Intensive level B this year and had no trouble at all with the level B requirements. He started out as a reluctant writer too. We followed up the SWI-B with the ancient history theme books, for which there are notes in the teacher's manual on what to expect for level A vs. level B. He easily completed the level B requirements in the theme book too. The IEW website says level A is for up to 5th grade, and level B is for 6th - 8th grade, but I think he would have complained about level A being way too easy for him. So I think you have to take the website's recommendations with a grain of salt. All that to say, I'd recommend level C for an 8th grader.
