Writing: Teachers & Students

Introduction

Do you love to write? Would you like to be a better writer?

This course is a how-to guide for kids who want to become better writers, for teachers looking for ideas for their classrooms, and for parents who want to help their children become better writers at home. In it you will learn about the writing process, do some fun writing activities and practice the four basic types of writing.

We'll take a brief look at the writing process. You may use a form of that process in school, or this may be a new idea for you. Either way, learning more about it will help you to become a better writer.

What kind of writing do you like to do? Do you love writing stories? Are reports your thing? Or do you like to write about ideas that you have and use those ideas to make others think and change their minds? These are all different types of writing and we will look at each of them in the course.

This course is written for children ages 9-12 and can be done with or without parental supervision.
