WriteShop Level 1

WriteShop I

WriteShop I is the high school writing course that actually makes sense—for both teens and their parents. Typically counted as ½ a composition credit (or a full English credit when paired with grammar and literature), it’s structured, straightforward, and surprisingly doable.

Parents love how the teacher’s manual lays everything out. From brainstorming to final draft, you’ll get clear examples, detailed lesson plans, and step-by-step instructions. No guesswork. No teaching background required. You just follow the plan, and your teen learns to write well.

Your student will tackle 16 lessons that build real skills: describing objects, people, places, food, and seasons; writing biographies, journalistic paragraphs, and emotional narratives. Each lesson is clearly defined, with manageable assignments that grow confidence along the way.

WriteShop’s learn-practice-do approach turns writing into a repeatable process, not a mystery. Its Writing Skills Checklist teaches teens how to revise with purpose—so they know exactly what to improve and how to do it. That means less frustration and stronger results.

WriteShop I helps your student move from “I don’t know where to start” to “I’ve got this.” It’s structured enough to count for credit, flexible enough for independent learning, and clear enough to make writing feel possible.
