This is the second level of Writing Workshop. In this class students will build on the concepts they learned in the first level. Students will acquire additional tools to further enhance their writing and increase their independence. They will learn more challenging modes of writing as they are introduced to several different types of essays. In addition, they will learn advanced style techniques, broaden their vocabulary, and expand their knowledge of grammar. This class is the perfect stepping stone to a high school writing class and can easily be taken in conjunction with a grammar class.

This middle school writing course is designed to take students through the writing process and help them to become a confident and effective writer. Basic grammar, spelling, and punctuation will be addressed along with how to read and take notes.
