Essentials in Writing Review

Full article at HomeschoolingAlong.com
After researching the so many formal writing curriculums available to homeschoolers out there, (I had to follow my “How to Choose the Right Homeschool Curriculum” guidance), “Essentials in Writing” stood out to me as the best fit for our situation and we began using it as our 2nd-grade writing curriculum. “Essentials in Writing 2“ turned out to be a match made in Heaven for my son and me.😇

It's good to show people curriculum, so that they can see if it's what they want for their own kids.

Thanks for sharing this detailed review. I was considering this curriculum for my 1st grader and 5th grader. I will definitely be purchasing it. Thanks.

I hope it will be a great addition to your family as much as it has been for ours!

so theres no teachers manual? they just watch the video and work in the student work book?

[@homeschoolingalong210]

Yes that's correct Julie! The Video works as the teacher's manual and on the back of the book is the answer key. The content is very appropriate for each grade, not too overwhelming, small chunks of info presented in each lesson. A great writing curriculum.

Great review, I hadn't heard about EIW till the last week and your review was a great explanation of the curriculum, thank you.

Do you feel the need of adding additional workbook and assessment/resources booklet?

Do you recommend starting from level 1 for 2Nd grader? He is not into writing that much (the reason might be that he is learning at home now with me, he is not motivated by teacher and group of kids). I didn’t notice he struggles with reading but he needs a bit more time to write and generally don’t like writing, at least at home with me.
