My son struggled desperately with writing, and I, despite having an elementary education degree, struggled to teach it. However, while I find it hard to formulate my own teaching plans, I know a good curriculum when I see one, and this is the BEST writing curriculum I've come across in 10 years of homeschooling." - Amy, a customer This book is a parent guide to help the adult plan daily writing lessons.

You can read more about Writer's Workshop method of writing in the Guidebook: How to Create a Writer's Workshop , available at Layers-of-learning.com. A Writer's Workshop Lesson Each daily writing lesson starts with a five-minute Mini-Lesson including grammar, mechanics, writing skills, and genre lessons. Next, choose from dozens of Exercises. Evaluating Writer's Workshop One project per unit is taken all the way through the Writing Process. When the project is completed it should be shared in front of a cheering audience. The Writing Project is evaluated with printable grading rubrics that assess each writer based on his or her growth during the unit, as opposed to an arbitrary standard. Reusable and For All Ages The units are repeatable so you can use the same Writer's Workshop book and program year after year with all of your children from beginning writers who sit on a lap and tell Mom what to write down, to high schoolers preparing for college writing. The parent picks and chooses between mini-lessons that address the children's needs and then exercises that will engage the children's interests. Printable Packs Writer's Workshop also includes printables for every unit. The Printable Packs are available as a digital PDF download from Layers-of-Learning.com on the Writer's Workshop product page.
