Description
Whether you have a child who is a right brain learner or one who has attention and focusing issues, this DVD may be the perfect tool to enable them to succeed with writing skills from sentences to essay. Beginning with a review of left and right brain learning, Mrs. Craft provides parents and teachers with a teaching outline to assist beginning and intermediate writers whether they meet one of the criteria above or if they simply need a "Plan B because their current textbook curriculum isn't working. Beginning Writers focus on writing one good sentence using a stimulus picture. Once they are able to write 3 sentences well, they are ready to move onto the Intermediate Writing instruction. Stressing that the key to success is modeling, she models' for the viewer the teaching methods that have been successful for struggling writers. With the modeling paradigm, parents/teachers will be actively involved in the writing instruction. Wonderfully practical and relatable, parents and teachers will quickly warm to the teaching ideas presented and feel qualified to share these valuable strategies with their children. Includes contact information for additional teaching resources. DVD runs approximately 40 minutes. Part of the "Struggling Learner Seminar series. ~ Deanne
Publisher's Description of Right Brain Paragraph & Composition Writing DVD
"Help! My teenager can't even write a paragraph by himself."
"My child loves to 'journal', but won't write an organized paragraph for anything."
The Universal Writing Method
"Loose thought patterns" plague many children and teens, particularly those suffering with Dysgraphia, ADD or Auditory Processing Problems. They have difficulty thinking in an organized manner, and therefore cannot write in an organized manner. I found I was able to engage even my most reluctant students in this process by giving them Right Brain, visual hangers to put their thoughts on. They could see their whole paper before it is written. This works when all other methods haven't worked...Guaranteed. (2nd grade-10th).
I used this painless method in my Resource Rooms Language Arts room. By the end of the year I got 3-4 page papers. No curriculum purchase. Just a very successful teaching method.
All you need is a whiteboard and the teacher and student working together using this Right Brain "whole" method. You will be surprised how this will work with your struggling writer. They'll ask to write their next paper!
When your student is writing papers well, then you can move on to any of the traditional writing programs.
So many teachers and students have been waiting for this video presentation of this simple but powerful method of teaching writing.
For use with teenagers, adolescents. and young children.
