Written Expression
 

Knowledge Gives Wings to Creativity and Independent Thought.

 

Written Expression:
 
Framing Your Thoughts Curriculum accompanied by DVDs that demonstrate classroom instruction of the skills in the Sentence Structure Guide and Applied Writing Manual.
 

                                                                 

In this curriculum, the parts of a sentence are represented by graphic symbols that allow students to tactilely manipulate sentence design as they express thoughts and ideas in writing. The concepts and skills are taught sequentially and logically. The process teaches correct sentence structure and punctuation using the students’ own expressive language.

 

Sentence Structure Guide with Companion DVDs for Grades 4-6

Knowledge, understanding, and analysis of sentence structure are powerful tools in increasing reading comprehension fluency and decoding text through context clues. The process leads students from understanding the function of sentence parts to standard labels of parts of speech.

Paragraph Development: Applied Writing Manual with Companion DVDs for Grade 6
Transfer Sentence Structure to paragraph development. This curriculum provides direct instruction to shape five types of paragraphs. Each paragraph type is taught with its unique graphic organizer and skill instruction. The strength of this process is that students not only learn the standard paragraph construction, but they master the ingredients needed to develop a specific type of paragraph. A strong editing piece teaches students to write with responsible independence.
