A nice summer refresher for homeschoolers
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 15 years ago
We found the Spectrum Writing books to be good summer practice for our kids. We just happen to homeschool, but they would be equally valuable to anyone. The books are organized around different styles (e.g. writing to entertain, descriptive writing, writing to explain, etc.). They are illustrated and have key sections highlighted in color. The pages are perforated and easily removed. There are just enough lessons (typically 40-50) to keep my kids busy throughout the summer. I usually only ask that they do one lesson per day, since I don't want them to hurry through their writing. Also I ask them to write as neatly a possible, with correct punctuation and spelling. Overall, the Spectrum Writing books are a useful compilation of small writing assignments - an area that many kids (mine included) need practice with. Check out a few sample pages (an option by the product), to get a better idea of the lesson difficulty. Please be kind enough to indicate if reviews are helpful.
Essence of communication today
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 24 years ago
The importance of writing today is essential because technology has given the world the opportunity to communicate with the written word via the computer and internet not to mention through out ones education and life. With this in mind it is essential to begin showing children the means for an intelligent tranfer of ones ideas and thoughts. With this series, beginning as soon as possible, you can be assured that your child or student will acquire the essential craft of translating his or her words legibally and meaningfully to others conveying what is meant to be given. I highly recommend the use and instruction of this material.
