Proper writing is one of the most essential skills your child will need in highschool, college and beyond.
In this day of short-hand texting, emojis and gifs, writing has become a lost art.
Getting middle schoolers engaged and enjoying writing isn’t difficult though! I’ve found that helping the find inspiration and providing them with simple and clear instructions is the key. That’s why I’ve created the 4 writing units for middleschoolers for you to use in your own homeschool program. Each of these can be used as a stand-alone unit or you can purchase the all (and save money!) for a comprehensive writing program.

I’m kind of curious to see if cursive will eventually die out – I learned it in elementary school (I’m 30 years old) but it seems to be a dying art now.
What a great resource for middle school kids. Middle School is a hard time for kids.
These are great. Writing skills are so important when it comes to a child’s education. We worked a lot with of our daughter when she was in middle school.
So many great ideas and resources! I’ll have to check out your site to see if there are resources for preschool age.
