Product Spotlight Theme-Based Writing Lessons

   IEW offers many excellent programs for language arts. , we have decided to take a closer look at a few of these programs and shine a spotlight on some of their features. In . No instructive videos Permalink By mariegreenhalghFeb12 Would you ever consider making some simple instruction videos for these books? My son went through level A with the instruction videos and enjoyed them so much. We are liking the fables, myths, and fairy tales themed book, but are disappointed there are no videos. Maybe they wouldnt even have to be detailed instruction videos, since you always advise the level a, b, or c packages to be used first before diving into the theme based books. It could be as simple as one of Andrews jokes and just a reminder for the student about the important things to remember for this lesson. I just found that I had a harder time convincing my son that I had listened to Mr. Pudewas instructions for this unit and he should trust me.😅 Mr. Pudewa, himself, however, is infallible in his mind!

Thanks for such a wonderful writing curriculum. I wish I had had the benefit of it when I was in school. I was wondering why Rockets Radar and Robotics has been discontinued from your theme based list? Is there going to be an update? Im thankful that I noticed it in time to get a copy because I know my boys will love it when they get old enough.

At this time I'm not aware of plans to update it, but I'll let the product development team know how much you are looking forward to going through it with your son. My son found it to be highly engaging as well and is now majoring in mechanical engineering in college. Who knows? Perhaps RRR encouraged him to reach for that goal!
