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.
We've been using IEW writing curriculum for 7 years now. I appreciate the Teacher Training DVDs as writing is not my strong suit, and they also help me understand how to grade writing assignments.…
We've done a couple of the older curriculums of Intensives but they've changed to Structure and Style. It will be as good if not better than the original.
This was highly recommended by other moms in my homeschool community.
My son needs some directed writing instruction. He is very creative, but he needs structure. I like the idea behind IEW's methods.
