About the Course
This course is a gentle introduction to IEW writing techniques. We will also explore ancient root words to enhance reading comprehension and spelling, as well as grammar mechanics to sharpen writing skills.
Each class will begin with the opportunity for students to present on various topics such as retelling stories following a Key Word Outline, reading written summaries, or reciting scripture or poetry. Then we will recite grammar rules together and work through IEW lessons and vocabulary words within Adventures in Writing. Next we will examine a weekly set of prefixes, roots, and suffixes, and grammar mechanic rules. Lastly, we will end with a fun grammar game.
Required Textbook:
Adventures in Writing, IEW

About JoAnna
I am excited to teach 5/6th Grade Science and History! Students will enjoy the structure of this course, and the skills they develop will provide a strong foundation for future coursework.
I earned a Bachelor of Arts in Communication Studies from Indiana University Southeast in 2002. After graduation, I worked at IU Southeast for eight years as an Admissions Counselor and Coordinator of High School Recruitment, followed by three years in Academic Affairs as a Resource Specialist. When my oldest daughter approached kindergarten, my husband and I decided that I would step away from full-time work so we could begin our homeschooling journey. We have truly enjoyed homeschooling and are deeply grateful for the many blessings it has brought to our family.
