Writing

Writing can be a challenge for students of any grade.  Helping students to understand the structure and mechanics of sentences to single, multi-paragraph, essay, short answer and various types of writing helps students build confidence and enjoyment in their own writing. 

Explicit instruction in research, identification of key words, writing summaries, using outlines to draft longer writing assignments is an important skill for students of any age and benefits arise across subjects including language arts, social studies, science and more.  Understanding how to use an outline, add details, understand complex writing prompts and answer questions can increase comprehension, boost reading skills and prepares students for academic rigor.
