Looking for a writing curriculum. Can't remember what it's called

[Kim in Appalachia]

Ok, so many, many years ago (around 10 years), while I was looking at some things to supplement our writing program I found a writing promt series.  It was designed for middle grades (I think!).  It was not aimed at homeschoolers.

 

It was simply a sentence pulled from literature.  Then the goal was not just to copy it from dictation, but to change it, sort of make it your own.

 

At the time I was using IEW, and was looking at different supplements.  I can't remember if it was a mentioned supplement (I had listened to lectures) or if I found it by following a link, then another link and seeing it come up on Amazon at the bottom with, people who bought this also looked at.......

 

I know someone who is now teaching middle school writing and would love something like that.  She used to homeschool but doesn't remember the series.  

 

I know this is a long shot, but I thougt maybe the Hive could help. :)

Write from the best?

That doesn't look like it. Good suggestion, though.

One of the Killgallon books? Look at sentence composing for middle school. You break apart a model sentence j to chunks and then substitute different chunks.

That's it!  Thank-you!  It was driving me crazy and she's really in need of some help for her class.
