This session is designed for teachers, parents, or tutors who have been using the basic IEW program, Teaching Writing: Structure and Style, and wish to deepen their understanding of the syllabus through a practice-filled, interactive day with Mr. Pudewa.
Each of the IEW structural units will be reviewed and expanded upon, including
- note making and summarizing from notes; limiting skills
- summarizing narrative stories with the Story Sequence Chart
- summarizing references (without copying the encyclopedia)
- library research reports using multiple references and fused outlines
- topic/clincher paragraph format, techniques for titling
- creative writing, letters, writing from pictures, author imitation
- formal essays and critique formats
We will also review and develop all the stylistic techniques:
- tips and tricks for teaching and expanding dress-ups
- teaching advanced sentence openers
- how to judiciously choose literary decorations
With plenty of time for Q&A, this is an ideal chance to re-energize your teaching year.
