Middle School Writing

Middle school students are often focused on the following:

• Sentence and paragraph structure. 

• Some students learn grammar as a tool for self-expression in writing—and enjoy it. 

• Some students can also feel bound by grammar rules that might appear puzzling, which can impact their confidence. 

• This age group is often introduced to a more formal stage of planning a writing assignment: an outline. 

• Students are also typically introduced to the organizational component found in the longstanding five-paragraph essay.

• I help students develop and expand habits and skills of clear, strong writing that can serve them for the rest of their lives.
