inashoe Posted December 12, 2008 Share Posted December 12, 2008 After all these posts about Writing, I have to ask : what is your favourite writing program : IEW Writing With Ease Writing Tales Writing Strands Classical Writing Other Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
siloam Posted December 12, 2008 Share Posted December 12, 2008 For the early years I like WWE, but Classical Writing is till my first love in a writing program for 4th or 5th grade on. I voted CW. I haven't tried the other programs. Heather Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sunshine State Sue Posted December 13, 2008 Share Posted December 13, 2008 Write Shop for 6th-7th-8th is the first I've found that worked well for us. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jenny in Atl Posted December 13, 2008 Share Posted December 13, 2008 At first I was not sold on CW, but now seeing the stories my dd12 is writing... I'm sold! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Laura Corin Posted December 13, 2008 Share Posted December 13, 2008 We don't exactly use a programme. The boys have writing prompts (in Junior English, So You Really Want to Learn English, Lightning Literature 7 and my own history prompts) and I help them with crafting.

Peela Posted December 13, 2008 Share Posted December 13, 2008 I said "other" because I don't know! Like Laura, I tend to make up my own- or have done for the last year. It's gone well but I am ready for a program again. Before that I loved Classical Writing but I burned out on the teacher intensiveness of it. Great program though. I like Writing Strands but my kids don't. I am about to try IEW's medieval history writing plans...writing is my son's weakest area and this may provide the scaffolding he needs, I hope :), while minimising having "another" subject to complete. My daughter just completed 2 online courses with home2teach.com, and I can highly recommend them. They were perfect for her. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
