Help Teaching Writing April 26th, 2008

Many kids need help developing their writing skills of their children. Many homeschool parents find that teaching writing requires expertise and skills that they don’t have. It doesn’t help that kids tend to like what they’ve written adn are a little difficult about feedback.  .   Want some help to teach writing?   Time4Writing provides that help.   

Time4Writing is a set of online writing courses for students in high school, middle school, and elementary school. Each course last eight weeks and costs $99.  Additional students and the second course are less expensive.  

The courses have writing assignments each week. Within one day, each assignment is evaluated with useful feedback. Each student has the same teacher through out the entire course.  Classes start almost every Monday.  

 

For the amount of personalized instruction that each student needs, the price is fantastic.  The course is run inside a safe easy-to-use learning management system so there is no need for student email or even a word processor.

In middle and high school, a methodology called Four Trait Writing is used. The first course on Four Traiting Writing is available from Time4Writing, which provides online writing courses. But there are likely to be books and other courses promoting this methodology in the near future. Time4Writing is built around and largely conforms to the NSTE approach to writing.
