Students will learn the process of giving others their thoughts in written form through three areas: creative, research and reports, and explanatory. Every exercise will guide them in the development of communication skills they need.

Topics addressed in this one-year course include:

• Recognizing the three points of view writers use
• Describing what has been seen over a period of days and writing a scientific report
• Understanding the organization of an explanatory exposition
• Developing effective characters and conflict in creative writing
• Identifying common literary devices in the Bible
• Understanding why literary devices are used

A suggested schedule is provided, as well as worksheets that are three-hole punched and perforated, and the addition of a reading and literature component helps students look more deeply into the Bible and other books they select.
