  • Writing and Rhetoric

    Writing needs to be taught just like any other subject, and letting students be “free” to write without a model is often letting them jump in the deep end without learning to swim first!

    Writing & Rhetoric assumes students learn best by reading excellent literature and improving their own writing skills by imitating those writers. For students who complete the entire program, they will read and learn to write narrative, expository, descriptive, and persuasive essays while developing a unique style.  Each exercise is designed to teach a skill that can be employed across all subjects. Skills are arranged from simple to complex, and the cumulative nature of each chapter reviews skills from earlier in the book, helping students to build a solid foundation of writing skills.

    There are currently 4 books in the series, with plans for the complete curriculum having 12 books.

    Volume 1:  Fables

    Volume 2: Narrative I

    Volume 3: Narrative II

    Volume 4: Chreia & Proverb
