Greetings in the precious name of our Lord !
This program has three books to it, it is set up to be used as a multi-level
writing course,
with all grades doing the same assignment. Even mom is supposed to write
with the
children. The book is filled with skills and ideas on stretching your
ability to write out
what you are trying to express.
There is one book that just gives ways to edit your work and revise what you
have written.
It goes into detail what the proper use of grammer is and it explains this
plainly and
without confussion.
It removes the difficulty of writing. Takes away the insecurity that some
children feel
when writing an assignment.
The whole set cost $42 I believe and was worth every dime. The book helps
develop the ability to write what you see and feel. To express your
thoughts as you
would speak them. It also has a good deal of help for writing different
types of
poetry.
It can be purchased at their once a year Homestead Craft Fair the week-end
after
Thanksgiving if you live around these part of Texas. (its wonderful, they
demonstrate
all aspects of homestead living. Spinning, weaving, soap making, milking,
cheese
making, baking on a wood stove, carpentry, herb gardening, basket weaving,
black smithing,
working with draft horses, rope making, candle making and many more things.
The books are written and published by a christian community. They are not
a cult or
anything, just plain living people who all homeschool and all are
homesteaders.
The set of books includes these books "Right Words, the Grace of Writing"
"Guidelines for
Teaching Right Words
A Relational
Approach to Writing"
"Homestead
Children" A sample of Childrens
writing from the
community
A small booklet on
how to Edit your work
