Foundations in Writing
Master Teacher: Charmayne Rush Description: Foundations in Writing focuses on writing mechanics (diagramming sentences, comma rules, punctuation, etc.) to equip students for more advanced high school writing. Students complete reflective, explanatory, and argumentative essays, and learn to work as writers both independently and collaboratively. Literature is approached from a biblical perspective, and students are taught to analyze the author’s techniques and apply the literature’s themes to their life experiences. At this stage of writing development, repetition is essential for best results; thus, this course includes weekly grammatical tests and writing activities, which ensure students understand the material and serve as building blocks for the longer writing assignments to come.
