Choose the Best Composition Curriculum For Your Children
If you wonder if your child can write, then ask if your child can tell a coherent story or verbalize what was just studied. If so, the writing “problem” may be a simple logistical problem. Not being able to compose and remember it long enough to hand write it, spell it, and punctuate it might be the problem—not the inability to write. [Can your student compose?]

Can Your Student Compose?
- If your student can dictate and tell you a story or the answer to a question from another course, then your student can compose.
- Use a cell phone app or an inexpensive recorder to record the student as he dictates/tells his “writing” to you. Later he can listen to what he recorded and write it on paper.
- A wealth of homeschool composition curriculum exists for teaching and learning the writing process.
- The following composition and creative writing books and courses were chosen because they are favorites among homeschooling families, are homeschool friendly, and they work.
- Perhaps you want to teach several children together with one composition course. Multi-level teaching saves time and allows children of different ages to learn together in the family setting.
