The Write Shop Primary Review & Giveaway

Write Shop is a teacher directed program that literally shows your children the “how to” of writing through examples, brainstorming, working together, and editing. No longer are they just trying to come up with something creative out of thin air. I know that seems simple, and it is, but its works!


What’s the Cost?


•$24.95-29.95 for the Teacher’s Manual


•$4.95/Student Workbook


With Write Shop Primary, you go through 8 sets per lesson. Now, I will say that it really pays to read the Teacher’s Manual on this one. Kim explains to you how to teach your children, and the curriculum gives step by step instructions of what to say. Without it, I think it would be somewhat complicated to just jump into, so be prepared for a little bit of prep work, but I think is definitely worth it.


It’s also fun! Most writing programs seem kind of boring to me, but Write Shop Primary includes fun games, visuals, activities, crafts and books that help to enhance the writing experience.
