Mommy2BeautifulGirls Posted February 11, 2013 Share Posted February 11, 2013 My 9-year-old daughter loves to write. She always has. Her writing can be very poetic at times, and she is great at telling a story with a beginning, middle, and end. She likes Writing Strands, but I was also thinking of adding in some IEW. I really like the method, which I have witnessed in our co-op. However, I keep hearing people talk about how IEW works great for reluctant writers, so I'm wondering if it would be a bad fit for her. Also, I wonder if using both of them concurrently would be overkill. Any insights??? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mommy2BeautifulGirls Posted February 11, 2013 Author Share Posted February 11, 2013 Thanks! That definitely helps! I think I will stick with WS for now. It does look like IEW is more for the reluctant writer, which she is not! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
