REVIEWING MY 3 IEW FAVORITES || Writing, Grammar, and Spelling Curriculum Review

Hi Ashley! We met at the Breeze retreat and I just wanted to pop in and say that I watched your video AND we are homeschooling again this year (I think we are commited for the long haul). I hope you and Pretzel Josh are well! Blessings! :)

Thank you for sharing!

Ohhh this is very helpful!

Thank you for this!!!!

Thank you this was helpful! We started using Fix-it-Grammar with my 5th and 6th grader this year and have enjoyed it overall. I have been trying to decide if the IEW writing would be a good fit for our next school year. I do have a couple of questions about the writing curriculum: 1. What grade did you start using it? And do you have to start with Structure and Style regardless of their grade level? 2. Have your kids ever used the video lessons? Do you think your daughter would find it as enjoyable if she were doing video lessons vs. in person? 3. Do they ever get bored with the repetitiveness? Just curious for someone who typically enjoys writing..do you find this engaging enough? One of my kids will be 7th grade next year and I would say she is naturally a good writer, but I’m struggling with finding something to give her a little more structure. We had tried another writing curriculum this year but there were so many rules and instructions that she started shutting down and was not enjoying it at all. We had shelved it early in the school year and I have been searching for something else. Thank you so much! 🙂

Great video! Lots of great info! In your opinion, do you think the theme-based writing, fix it grammar and the spelling program would make a complete language arts program for elementary students??

Do you have a video on doing a Phonetic Zoo lesson like “Do a Lesson with Us” type thing? I’m using this with my son next year (he’s 6th grade right now) and I’d like to see how the lessons flow.

Thank you. My daughters are in 5/6th and I want to start them with this. Please tell me what to buy I’m so confused lol. I can check their work but what do I buy??

Would you say that IEW's grammar has to be paired with their writing program? I am enjoying our current grammar curriculum and I would like to keep using it. However if there is a benefit of working on both IEW's grammar and writing at the same time then I would like to know your opinion

So many of us homeschool moms named Ashley 😂especially on YouTube!

I want to try IEW . Where do I start for a 2nd and 3rd grade? ❤

I was really interested in IEW, but it seems like everyone says it probably takes 45m to an hour. I just don’t think my son could do that. He struggles through our current program when it takes 30m.
