This homeschool writing curriculum features a slow, systematic approach for first grade students, aged 6 to 7, to learn to write well. The step-by-step approach allows students to focus on small, daily assignments, so they don’t feel overwhelmed and retain the information. Lessons are taught by Matthew Stephens, the author/teacher, and are short and to the point. Students then apply the lessons through the work in their workbook.

It is recommended that students start this program after they have a good understanding of spelling phonetically. All About Spelling is highly recommended.
