Teaching your child how to communicate takes many forms, with the two main forms being spoken and written communication. We believe written communication is extremely important. Therefore we have developed another tool for families to use to teach their children written communication: TWJ Student Lesson Guide.
This Student Lesson Guide was created so individual students might work independently, while learning how to write a paragraph. It allows students to work at their own pace, and families to use the same material for multiple children. The Student Lesson Guide was developed as both a supplement and an alternative to our Writing Foundations Classes, which teach the same information, but in a class setting. The obvious differences in the Writing Foundations Classes (WF) and the Student Lesson Guide (SLG) are the ability to complete the class in a group setting or learn the same information by working indepently through the SLG. Both have productive aspects depending on your goal.
Benefits of taking the Writing Foundations Class:
Students gather ideas from others in the class
Students hear important information repeated in new ways in class
Students ask questions of the teacher
Students hear classmates’ questions and learn from them and their
answers
Students receive instruction and individual feedback from an
experienced TWJ instructor
Benefits of using the Student Lesson Guide:
Students learn small chunks of information that they practice and apply (mostly) independently
Students do not need to attend a scheduled class time
Students can proceed through the SLG at their own pace
Students have the ability to repeat lessons year after year as needed
for mastery
SLG can be used for ALL students WITHIN YOUR OWN FAMILY .
As you can see the Writing Foundations Classes and the Student Lesson Guide have very similar content, but they differ in the audience: a single student vs. a class. Both products are amazing and have the potential to benefit students enormously when used properly. Either way, you’ll be pleased with the outcome. Order your Student Lesson Guide here:
