[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Your favorite writing curriculum for a reluctant writer?[/quote] Forgot to say 2nd grader.[/quote] Have to say English Lessons Through Literature again. It starts out very slow, focusing mostly on copywork, dictation, and basic grammar in levels 1 and 2, while keeping kids engaged with classic fables, poems, and literature (so they hear beautiful language). By level 3, they start doing progressively more independent writing, learning how to play with sentences, words, etc. For reluctant writers, it is light on the actual writing at L2 and also is very scalable. As a disclaimer, my kids are not reluctant writers (they fill notebooks with stories they create themselves), but it seems to me that this curriculum would also work well for those who hate having to sit and write.[/quote]
