Bible Heroes: Writing Lessons in Structure and Style (Student Book)

Grades 1 - 2

Bible Heroes: Writing Lessons in Structure and Style provides children with Bible-based writing lessons that follow the methods of the IEW Teaching Writing: Structure and Style (TWSS) course.

Designed for students in grades 1-2, but adaptable through 5th grade (IEW Level A), this book contains 27 lessons that introduce the TWSS models of structure (TWSS Units 1-7) and elements of style such as "dress-ups." Units cover: key word outlining; writing from key word outlines; summarizing narrative stories; summarizing references (reports); writing from pictures; and creative writing. Lessons focus on godly men and women of the Bible, and show students how they can apply godly virtues to their lives. Each lesson includes a Bible verse, while games and activities provide a way to engage students.

221 pages, spiral-bound softcover including cut-apart cardstock items for style helps, games, and vocabulary cards. Reproducible for in-family use.
