Writing Strands Beginning 1

A Comprehensive Approach

Writing Strands Beginning 1 takes a comprehensive approach to language arts, teaching students components of grammar, sentence construction, logical sequencing, and structure while also developing the student’s reading, writing, and speaking skills. Students learn how to read and evaluate literature, practice spelling, address envelopes, learn the importance of eye contact, and so much more!

Students will rotate writing and reading assignments each week—thus also learning to write through literature because good readers make good writers! In this new edition, the Bible is now used as the literature base for teaching how characters are developed within the elements of literature.

This book includes a suggested daily schedule, teaching instructions, and student worksheets.  The pages are 3-hole punched and perforated.

Through interactive, guided exercises students will learn how to:

• Use adjectives to construct sentences
• Present actions in a logical sequence
• Write conversations using dialogue structure
• Describe objects by observing and defining differences
• Read and evaluate literature
• and so much more!
