HOMESCHOOL WRITING CURRICULUM FOR COLLEGE BOUND STUDENTS | + an interview with a college professor

Today I am sharing all the writing and language arts curriculum that we used from 4th grade through 11th grade, I am discussing how English 101 (dual enrollment 12th grade) is going in light of our preparation for college English. I am sharing an interview that I did with my brother who is a college English professor. I will share his thoughts on how we can prepare our homeschoolers for college level writing.Thank you for watching!

My eldest daughter just finished her college education and she was an English Minor. She duel enrolled her senior year at the college she then went to as a college student. In all of her English classss she received A's & A+'s. She did IEW the second half of her 4th grade year, 5th grade & 6th grade years and LTW in 7th, 8th & 9th grades. When I asked her if she felt she was actually learning anything in her Composition & public speaking classes, she said no, as she had learned everything she was doing in class in LTW. She is a HUGE proponent of LTW and encourages her younger siblings to really pay attention and get everything out of it that they can!

This was so helpful! Thank you for the level of detail you provided and the info from your professor family as well. This definitely gives me some ideas to incorporate.

[@OurHOMEschoolPlan]

Yah!!! I’m so excited!! I can’t wait to hear your thoughts on this!!!

[@Kaylin09]

This is exactly the video I needed!!

[@EWRJMC]

I just came across this video at the perfect time for planning my daughter’s high school English course! I can not tell you how helpful it is after doing IEW and LTW. This was the recommendation I needed. Thank you for taking the time to share these helpful tips for other homeschool parents!

[@HomeschoolwithJen]

Such a helpful video! I can't even thank you enough for this video as we are choosing a writing curriculum right now for middle school and you have addressed so many of the questions that I have. Thank you!

[@sha-toinaswint2152]

This video was golden per usual 😉🥰 thank you so much. You have helped me so much in my planning and preparation for my children.

[@mmv10]

Great information as always! Thank you.

[@kimberlyD.]

Excellent video. Very helpful I really appreciate all the information. The Q & A is valuable ❤

[@MW11-3]

Another very helpful video, thanks! I took lots of notes!

Rachel was the first homeschool mom I found on KZbin, and you were the second. It's a lot of fun to see the 2 of you team up like this!

[@brittanyedwards3293]

This video was super helpful-thank you!!

[@RockSimmer-gal4God]

It’s awesome that TGTB teaches writing well!!! We do a lot of review work anyway for language arts so that shouldn’t bother my kids. I’ve noticed that homeschoolers are more able to think for themselves.

[@heidibarker2120]

This was so helpful! I’m so glad you discussed the importance of grammar. I know ELA can be scary for parents, especially as their students approach high school. Writing is more subjective, and that scares parents. Thank you for sharing these resources to ease our young students into the writing process.

You are so well spoken. Your kiddos are so blessed to have a mom who cares so deeply about preparing them well. This is great advise. I am using the new iew sss 1a dvds with my fourth grader this year. It it half research writing, half creative writing. It’s interesting how different it seems to from what you used.

That blue color looks so beautiful on you.

This was super helpful!! Thanks for sharing! My dad grew up just north of Wilkes Barre on a lake called Harvey's Lake. I love that area! Tell your brother thank you as well. This was super helpful to me! I feel Katie English is not my strongest subject so I feel a bit like the blind leading the blind!

[@OurHOMEschoolPlan]

That’s helpful to have family members who are college professors!!

[@homeschool.pray.repeat]

I’m so excited for this! We’re no where near highschool, but I do like to have an idea of the route we’re headed.

Great video - so helpful for those starting to homeschool high school! Another great writing curriculum that is very helpful in preparing for college writing is Susan Wise Bauer's Writing with Skill curriculum. She is also an English professor at the College of William and Mary and she wrote the curriculum after several years of teaching English 101, hoping to give students the writing skills they were sorely lacking in her classes.
