Writing Essentials Essay and Composition Class
Writing Essentials Essay and Composition Class
Interest through 12th Grade Sept-May
This is an Essay and Composition Class that covers the foundations for all while challenging students at different skill levels.
Grading and credit awarded is at the final discretion of the parent, so I am flexible with assignments and will work with your family to meet your goals and needs as much as possible. This class is eligible for one credit for the entire year of study.
This course will cover essay, composition, journalism, and creative writing to encourage amazing communication skills. Students will have the opportunity to submit a rough draft for teacher suggestions and preliminary grading in a Writer's Workshop type style so that the student can rework their writing and turn in a final draft for grading and credit.
Assignments given will include Personal Introductory Essay (terrific for college board preparation), Persuasive Essay, Literary Critical Analysis Essay, Research Papers, Journalism, and Creative Writing.
The class will cover MLA and APA as well as other notation and works cited styles.
Semester grading and certificates will be included this year for this one tuition cost.
What You Will Need:
You will need a computer and suggested Grammar texts will be included as part of the course but will not be required.
Online classes can often be taken by hand-held devices. Students are not required to have or use a webcam or microphone, although they will be given opportunities to use them throughout the course to make presentations. The classes are LIVE each week with the teacher on mic and/or webcam. The class is similar to a traditional class environment, but online the students will discuss as the teacher directs in a chat box within the classroom, will learn and share by webcam or mic, will see and make powerpoint or pdf presentations of assignments, and will get to do all of this from the comfort of their own home!
