Class Instruction

Does your student need practice writing different types of essays based on analyzing passages? This is the class for them! Every session, they will submit an essay and get individualized feedback to help them become better writers. Our focus is the author’s point of view, which requires students to analyze the passage in more detail. It’s great practice for writing using a text.

2024 Winter Writing Class:

Author Point of View Essay Writing

(Grades 4 – 6)

Class Description:

In this class, we will focus on identifying and analyzing the author’s point of view in different pieces of writing. What is the author’s opinion about the topic they are writing about? To answer this question, students will look at word choice and topic presentation, and will practice with fiction and nonfiction pieces. Students will submit an essay with every class and receive individual feedback on how to improve. They will practice informative and persuasive writing, with how to write each included in the lessons.
