I would venture to think most homeschool parents are often on the lookout for quality curriculum. Am I right?
We spend hours pouring through catalogs, reading reviews online, maybe attending conferences, and definitely chatting with friends about the ULTIMATE question:
So, what curriculum do you use? 
Today, I’d like to make that work a little easier by sharing about a wonderful, most helpful middle school writing curriculum we’ve been using for a few months.
Introducing Cover Story Writing Curriculum….
What is Cover Story?
I’ll only share a quick peek; I have a more detailed review with my daughter’s thoughts on what she loved over at Domestic Serenity.
Cover Story is a DVD-based curriculum taught by a professional writer. The HUGE benefit is that it’s a complete language arts program with a strong writing component .
Over the course of one school year, your child will use all of the skills learned to create their own magazine, a process my 11-yr old is thoroughly enjoying.
What Cover Story Does for YOU
Cover Story includes:
- 6 DVDs with 72 lessons ranging about 15-20 minutes each
- 1 DVD of grammar lessons
- student book
- teacher’s guide
- a journal
Once you own the kit, only the consumable student book and journal need to be purchased again for repeated use with another child. Cover Story lifts the need for Mom or Dad to do the actual teaching of creative writing, and gives the student autonomy in this area.
Again, if you’d like a bit more personal view of how this curriculum is working out for us — do check out my post!
