Category Description for Institute for Excellence in Writing Programs (IEW)
Institute for Excellence in Writing (IEW) curriculum provides an overall approach to writing instruction for all your homeschooling years. The distinctive Teaching Writing Structure & Style (TWSS) approach focuses on two basic components of composition – structure and style. Structure is both the type of writing and the method of organizing the writing. Style includes such things as varying sentence openings, using similes and metaphors, or repeating certain words for effect. Teachers and students will learn how to outline and summarize; transform their thoughts and ideas into writing; create cohesive paragraphs, essays, stories, reports, and critiques. They’ll learn/apply stylistic techniques like varied sentence structure, interesting vocabulary; and literary devices. It’s assumed parents/teachers are familiar with this dual-focused TWSS method when teaching IEW’s Structure & Style and in the Theme-Based Writing lesson courses.

Best writing curriculum ever
Although I have never used the video streaming method, IEW is the best quality writing program which I have ever seen in my home school teaching career. IEW uses a de-construction method to reduce resistance and get the concepts into kid's minds and allow them to get "back to building forts". It really helps students learn how to sort ideas for writing and learn how to "decorate" their essays. The material starts with Key Word Outline concepts. It teaches the learner to reword writing models provided.
It finishes with research paper writing in a very low key way. The Structure and Style work book teaches the tutor to adapt the material to all ages. The videos actually teach the material to the student in an amusing and engaging way. Every kid can relate to this material. Moms will heave a sigh of relief that this is a method that works and teaches kids how to think more clearly about every thing.

Why did you choose this?
Rainbow Resource CenterStore

We chose this because we had purchased an IEW writing unit, only to learn that this is a must have in order to be able to do what we already purchased.

Shannon J

Have heard great things about TWSS. My first homeschool child struggled with writing and I had a hard time trying to teach it. I wanted to find something different for the next two kiddos.

Debbie V

It was suggested to me in another book.

Amanda P

I bought the Student Intensive Level A for my son and was so impressed by the overview DVD, I wanted to get the lessons for the whole program!
