Writing Essentials
Young learners will develop essential writing skills through a variety of fun and educational activities. Students will begin by exploring the building blocks of language, learning about the different parts of speech and how they work together to create strong sentences. As they gain confidence, they will dive into different types of writing, including persuasive, sequential, and descriptive writing, where they will learn to express their ideas clearly and creatively.
​
Midway through the course, students will put their skills to the test by crafting their own short stories, focusing on storytelling techniques such as character development, dialogue, and plot structure. They will also practice revising and editing, learning how to improve their work by refining their ideas, strengthening their word choices, and correcting grammar and punctuation errors.
​
By the end of the school year, students will use all they have learned to write a well-structured five-paragraph essay, demonstrating their ability to organize their thoughts, support their ideas, and write with clarity. Through guided instruction, peer collaboration, and plenty of practice, this class will help young writers build confidence and develop a lifelong love for writing.

Advanced Writing Skills
This course builds on the foundations of Writing Fundamentals, delving deeper into various forms of writing. We will begin by refining paragraph structure before progressing to basic five-paragraph essays, which will later expand into research papers. Additionally, we will explore other essential writing formats, including letter writing, resume building, professional email composition, and even creative expression through poetry.
