Analyzing Lit: Middle School + Middle School Writing: Passion Projects + Essay Prep: Dynamic Thinking

Middle School Semester Option — Winter/Spring 2024

High School Prep

This semester does it all. Analysis. Formats. Critical thinking. Don’t drop your teen into high school writing without giving them the skills to navigate big ideas. This semester is a transition between the personal experience-driven writing of youth and the more disciplined, rhetorically-driven thinking of academic writing. We nourish a student's original writing voice while also inviting them to develop a sophisticated investigation of academic topics. Rather than simply leaving childhood writing behind, they can experiment in applying their personal flair to increasingly academic tasks.

Recommended for ages 13 and up.
