IEW Writing Curriculum Reviews: Theme Based Vs. Structure & Style || Reviews + Flip Through

Here is my latest review on the IEW Writing Curriculum, Specifically Structure & Style. We are using Structure & Style B (Middle School) Level 1. I have also compared it to the themed based IEW Writing Curriculum. Kind of like a Theme Based Vs. Structure Style thing.
I have been using IEW for the last 5 years with all of my kids (except Naomi, she's too young). Very few curriculums I love, and this is one.

I am currently using TGTB. My daughter will be “in 2nd grade” she’s a pretty good reader and she does well in language arts. I’m contemplating switching to AAR 2 and IEW to give her a more in depth, and a why/how to behind things. Do you think the AAR/IEW combo will be enough for a whole language curriculum? I know for IEW pals they do include AAS so I would be using that for the spelling.

Thanks for the detailed flip through! I’ve also been confused if the parent training was necessary and the differences between the streams. What grades did you begin this with each of your children? Did you use this and Fix-it and that was considered a complete LA curriculum? Finally, I also wonder when they do their own writing? Thanks so much again! This is the best video I’ve seen for IEW!

@LivingWithEve 2 жыл бұрын

Love Fix it Grammar. And the new versions are so good. I started my kids around 2nd and 3rd grade. And yes, totally a complete LA curriculum with the exception of phonics and if you need, diagramming. For diagramming I did use well-trained mind. The idea behind their own writing, IEW is based on the Suzuki method, you copy the good stuff until it becomes so familiar with you. Eventually they will write papers with History and other subjects. This is when the training with IEW comes out. My son also has starting writing on his own. However, they do have a few lessons where they do create their own. Think of IEW as training.

Thank you for doing this video. One thing that I have always been confused about IEW is how and when they transition from rewriting written works to inventing and writing on their own. At this level, do that they that? Was the sample you read am example of rewriting or invented writing. I see the value in both, I just never seem to find a video that explains beyond the retelling. Thank you so much.

@LivingWithEve 2 жыл бұрын

They do have a few lessons on that. I also know that the Structure and Style had a lesson where he had to write a research paper on a topic of his choice. But most of it is the rewriting. It's very much like the Suzuki method. The concept is copying the good stuff and when you do write on your own, it comes naturally. I know my boys write papers for history at the co-op and from all of the IEW work they're papers come out very nice and they find it enjoyable and easy.

@elizabethsutherland4999 3 ай бұрын

Thank you for this video! For a child younger than your son, do you think they could do the Structure and Style so independently? I feel like a younger child might need the parent quite involved anyway, so I might be better off with the theme based program until he's a bit older. (My oldest is currently age 8 and I was thinking of doing something with him and his advanced younger sister next year when they will be 7&9.) After watching your video, I am kind of thinking we might do theme based the first few years and then switch to S&S when they are older. I do have several children so independent work is a good thing, but I do like writing and would like to do some of it with them.

My son is a creative writer. Would this type of structure be better to start when he is older like 4th grade? I’m thinking for third grade just to get the “all thing fascinating” curriculum.

@LivingWithEve Жыл бұрын

That’s hard. I think starting them in 3rd or 4th grade is good. Just remember it is a tool box and take your time going through it. And continue to feed into his creative writing outside of this. You will see his creative writing add more beautiful words and descriptor and the scripture will start to change so he can communicate better.

With this do you just go to 1c once you finish 2b? I’m starting this for my kiddo going into 8th and they recommended we start with 1b I was digging around to see how this rolls into HS years and can’t find anything but came across your video here in my searching.

@LivingWithEve 4 ай бұрын

So level A is elementary, B Middle, C HS. However since he is just starting I can see why the would recommend 1B for 8th grade. After that, for 9th, I would either do 2B or 1C. You would have to look at the curriculum and compare it with how he did with 1B.

Is this a good program for K? Or do you have recommendations for different programs for that level?

1) you can however you will need to double up days. They give you a 5 day break down. So you can do day 1 & 2 on day 1 and 3 on day 2 and 4 & 5 on day 6. 2) For kindergarten I would do PAL. For the theme based I would start them when they are 2nd or 3rd grade.

The key is structure and style has a streaming version. It saves you on so much time. And if it’s time your worried about then that’s the way to go. There is a bit of a learning curve in the beginning for you since you will still have to grade their work. So watching their videos with them or even a video by Andrew (I’ll put a link) that will help you know what your looking for. Hours a week? Maybe 4 - 5 hours with the themed unit, 30 mins -1 hour of grading with structure and style. But every child and family is different, so it varies.

Sorry, I don't have an answer - I'm part way through the TWSS course thanks to their 12 days of Christmas offers. I'm getting a lot out of the teacher course so far. The cheapest way to do that seems to be to get their Premium membership, so you get access to the training videos. They also have a page with some helpful downloads, so if you can't afford the seminar workbook, then you can get some handouts to tide you over.

So I wonder if this is a curriculum for L.A or is it only for writing?

It will cover vocabulary, grammar, and writing. You can also get Fix-It grammar and their Phonic Zoo.

Does this teach how to write an essay or does this teach how to re-write a passage?

@LivingWithEve Жыл бұрын

Some will have you rewrite the passage, however the students will compose research papers and essays and you move along in the curriculum.

What do you recommend for Kindergarten?

Their PAL program. We used it with my 3 fleet kids.

Would you say this has any religious writings in this?

@LivingWithEve 2 ай бұрын

No, only the theme based ones that say “Bible” in their titles.

Hi!!! I have been watching your videos for a really longer time because I want to become a special Ed teacher in CA. One of my courses is asking for me to interview someone who has a child with special needs. Would you be able to help me with that? Much love from CA xoxo
