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.

Why did you choose this?

The teacher in the video is very fun and engaging and the materials are well developed. My kids are very happy with this curriculum.

Tried out the first couple weeks for free on the IEW website. It has been a good fit for us. Ordered here because Rainbow Resource offers free shipping. With other writing curriculum it was hard for…

A friend recommended it.

Very straight forward and logical approach. The patterns taught help students who are not creative develop confidence in writing by teaching how structure can write the paper for them.
