Writing
From clear sentences to well-organized paragraphs, essays and reports.
Grammar
Multisensory grammar for students, or business grammar for workplace writing.
Spelling through morpheme matrices
Prefixes, roots and suffixes that unlock thousands of words.
Oral reading fluency
Reading aloud smoothly, accurately and with expression.
Comprehension
Understanding, summarizing and responding to what you read.
English courses
Support with English course work and writing assignments.
How it works
The same structured approach, applied to writing
Writing depends on the same foundations as reading: hearing the sounds in words, spelling them reliably and knowing how words are built. We start with a short assessment of where the gaps are, then teach each skill explicitly and build on it every lesson.
Students who struggle with reading as well as writing usually do best in our full reading program, which weaves writing, grammar, spelling and comprehension into every lesson.
Who it is for
For students and adults
Students
Kindergarten to Grade 12 students whose writing lags behind their ideas.
