TOS Review ~ Write with WORLD

Looking for a Christian-based, real-world writing curriculum for your middle school student? Then you may be interested in Write with World.Nuts & Bolts~Grades 6-9 (Advanced 5th could also do it or HS students that haven't had much writing experience)~Written directly to the Student~Short, daily lessons that relate to the real-world~additional supplies: one (1) notebook to use for journal assignments as well as access to magazines and newspapers~Teacher manual included~Year One Contents: Developing Critical Readers, Developing Writers (paragraphing), Writing an Autobiography, Crafting Narratives~$95 per year ($165 for both years)~Cost includes access to website with additional prompts and helps (online in Sept. 2012)~Sample Lessons/About the Authors/to Order/More Info
PROS~written to the student~encourages independence~mini-lessons that break down larger writing goals~assignments have meaning~reusable~little to no teacher prep
CONS~set-up as 5 mini-lessons per capsule (so 5 assignments/week) I personally prefer 4~only available as text (at this time...they MAY develop a downloadable version if there is enough interest)~only a Middle School curriculum (at this time...again, with enough interest they may develop a HS curriculum)
Our ThoughtsUnicorn and I really liked that the lessons were short and sweet. I also liked that she could do the lessons on her own.
