Strong writing doesn't happen by accident. WriteShop II teaches your teen how to plan, organize, revise, and polish a wide variety of essays and compositions through a structured, step-by-step approach that builds confidence and independence.
Typically counted as ½ high school composition credit—or a full English credit when paired with grammar and literature—WriteShop II goes beyond introductory writing skills to help students communicate clearly, persuasively, and effectively.
Students work through a variety of practical writing forms, including persuasive essays, compare-and-contrast essays, personal narratives, timed essays, advertisements, letters to the editor, short reports, and more. Each assignment builds on previously learned skills, helping students strengthen both their writing ability and their understanding of the writing process.
A key feature of WriteShop II is its learn-practice-do approach. Rather than assigning papers and hoping for improvement, the program teaches students how to brainstorm, organize ideas, draft effectively, revise thoughtfully, and edit with purpose. The result is a repeatable process students can apply to future assignments across high school, college, and beyond.
The Teacher's Manual provides detailed lesson plans, teaching notes, examples, evaluation tools, and writing checklists that guide both parent and student through each lesson. Assignments are clearly defined, expectations are easy to understand, and revision becomes a meaningful part of the learning process rather than an afterthought.
Because students continually practice planning, drafting, revising, and editing, strong writing habits begin to develop naturally. Over time, they learn how to approach a blank page with confidence and transform rough ideas into polished compositions.
For families seeking a writing program that emphasizes process, structure, and real-world communication skills, WriteShop II offers a practical approach that helps teens become stronger, more capable writers.
“The curriculum offers a wide range of activities and exercises. My 13-year-old daughter loved the exaggeration worksheet. I was also thrilled to find this opportunity to inject a little humor. Laughter makes everything better.”
