Category Description for IEW Writing Across the Curriculum
Writing Across the Curriculum from the Institute for Excellence in Writing (IEW) is a collection of theme-based writing courses that seamlessly integrate the Structure and Style method with subjects such as history, science, and literature. These ready-to-use lessons deepen content understanding while developing strong organizational and stylistic writing skills.
Designed for busy parents and teachers, each course provides comprehensive, nearly scripted instruction, all necessary source texts, clear assignments, and composition checklists. Students progress through the nine structural units of the Structure and Style method while producing a polished portfolio of poems, stories, reports, essays, and research papers. Parents and teachers should complete the Teaching Writing: Structure and Style® seminar before using Writing Across the Curriculum.
