"All the practicality,
humor and fun of Wordsmith, but written for the younger student, ages 9-12. An
easy to use writing course encouraging students to develop their writing skills
as they participate in every role on a newspaper staff: editor, reporter,
writer, etc. Children develop a love for writing as they express themselves
through sentence and paragraph writing, persuasive writing, and much more."
Note from Harriet: I found Wordsmith Apprentice to be helpful for older children who are reluctant writers. Grades 4-6 paperback

"The third and last of the Wordsmith series focuses on
building, integrating, and polishing practical writing skills. This
self-directed program allows students to take charge of their assignments and
schedules. Strong in preparing the student for college, Part 1 addresses
practical, everyday writing: notes, outlines, personal correspondence,
summaries, business letters and reports. Part 2 focuses on the power of
language: paragraphs (principles, types, and organization), writing techniques,
and developing a personal writing style. Part 3 concentrates on essay writing:
descriptive, narrative, expository, and persuasive essays. Wordsmith equips
young adults for a lifetime of excellence in communication skills."
