If you'd prefer not to invest time making your own, the Time- Saver Pack includes ready-made materials (like spinners and game cards) described in the Teacher's Guide. Permission is granted for copying worksheet and Fold-N-Go pages for single-family use. Upper elementary ages (8-11 years) would begin with Level D if they need to learn to identify and use proper grammar and punctuation, how to choose strong words, brainstorming before writing, writing a paragraph, writing research-based articles, or self-editing and revising their own work. This level could be stretched into grades 6-7 for a child with learning struggles (although the worksheets may seem childish). Children who are comfortable with basic sentence structure and have learned basic paragraph skills would begin with Level E.

I chose this because both of my boys enjoyed this writing program, however now that I have them in highschool, I also have a kindergartener, 3 year old and my daughter (whom this is for) I need help…
I used it before with my older daughter and it was very helpful!
i homeschool, my son is dyslexic has auditory processing disorder and has a very difficult time coming up w/ his own sentences, coming up w/ writing ideas and putting them on paper so my hope is one…
I homeschool three kids so saving time on prep for lessons is a priority
