You are our Teacher and like disciples we come to learn from the example of your holy life. You are our Mother, and like children, we come to offer you all of the love of our hearts. Receive, dearest Mother, our offerings and listen attentively to our supplications. Amen.

Has anyone seen this?? Used this??

I saw it last night and looked at the samples and it looks like it has a nice simple format that could support rabbit trails so well.

I know with my history of writing programs- have lots but don't like/won't use any of them (except Bravewriter). So I am wondering if this is just my pre-Fall type planning time (for me that usually means making plans, and then doing something completely different )

Any opinions....

It looks good! Sorry I don't have more to add, but this is the first I've heard of it. I'm highly considering it, though, so please, if anyone has any experience with it or coments, let me know!

Thanks!
Christine

Well, thanks~! I'd never heard of this, but looked extensively at it this morning, reviews, samples, etc. This sounds exactly like what I've been looking for for YEARS!

I love the idea of SO many wonderful writing programs, but not one has been easy for me to implement. And I'm a writer!!! I think this should fill the bill, and I can use it with everyone! I bought both volumes this morning, and need to change my curriculum on my first quarterly report now!

Off to sell some more curriculum!!!

It does look very good, the first volume is on descriptive writing and the second volume is teaching expository and informative writing. (What exactly is expository anyway? )    


Tracy
I am eagerly looking forward to hearing what you think when it arrives.
