    This is a great writing curriculum. It present writing in short easy step. The lesson for each week reviews the previous skills and adds a new one. By the end of the book, the student can produce a terrific essay. When used over successive years (4th-7th) grade, the child becomes a proficient writer, able to write essays, research papers and free writes. I highly recommend the Writing with Research and Style DVD by Andrew Pudewa for the parent before beginning the program. it explains the 'whys' of the program.

    This is a really great writing program. It seems pricey, but it is worth it.

    I feel this curriculum offers some valuable 'building blocks' for teaching children how to write effectively including the use of strong verbs and adjectives, variety in sentence structure etc. My one caution is that you can become too dependent on this approach so that all the children's papers sound very similar. Sometimes, in my opinion, in order to use all the 'dress-ups' the papers can seem a bit contrived. Overall, it is an excellent tool for writing instruction as long as one allows for a little deviation when appropriate.
