IEW People and Places in the Community Writing Course - Grades 1-4

Learn how to write with structure and style as we get to know the workers who keep a community running smoothly—from firefighters and police officers to road crews and rescue workers.. Students will work through the Institute for Excellence in Writing's (IEW) units 1-3 as they learn to complete key word outlines, take notes, and complete stories.  This course is an excellent first introduction to the IEW method of writing and suits students in grades 2-4.  Students in grade 1 who are writing complete sentences / paragraphs may also benefit from this class.

Light vocabulary and grammar will be included in this course.  Please note that this is the first semester of a year-long course.
