“IF YOU CAN’T EXPLAIN IT SIMPLY, YOU DON’T UNDERSTAND IT WELL ENOUGH.”
— ALBERT EINSTEIN
SECOND AND THIRD GRADE PARAGRAPH WRITING COURSE
Eliminate the fear, confusion, and frustration. Here at The Baran Method, we absolutely understand the components of successful writing and how to teach them to students. In just a short time, students who learn The Baran Method can do what takes years for complex and difficult-to-learn programs to accomplish.
To our kids (and to their teachers), there is almost nothing more exciting than seeing a clear paragraph or essay they’ve just written. As a parent or teacher, when your kids have mastered this skill, you can rest assured that you’ve prepared your kids for school, college, and beyond.
In the course, each video lesson walks students through an assignment and then shows them how to analyze the reading in the assignment in a written response. READING A STORY, ARTICLE, SPEECH, OR POEM, AND THEN ANALYZING THAT READING IN A WRITTEN RESPONSE IS THE MOST IMPORTANT WRITING SKILL STUDENTS CAN LEARN WHILE IN SCHOOL! Learning that skill NOW puts kids ahead of the “pack” and squarely on the road to success.
This skill seems way too hard, complex, or difficult for most, but it’s so much easier when students learn how to work with the three cornerstones of all communication—claim, evidence, and analysis.
In the course, there are four video lessons, downloadable PDFs of the readings in each video lesson, and introductory videos to help your kids get going fast. Each video lesson is thirty to forty-five minutes in length. The video lessons include:
Two videos that teach students how to read critically, analyze, and write about fiction.
One video that teaches students how to read critically, analyze, and write about non-fiction.
One video that teaches students how to write an argument/persuasive (aka opinion) response.
Each video shows students how to write a clear paragraph sentence-by-sentence. They just follow along and then practice in our companion workbook or on their own. Students can watch the videos at their own pace and then come to weekly ZOOM Office Hours to ask questions and get help. Plus, one of the best parts about the videos is the ability to simply hit the REWIND button to go back over the material!
So—
Are you worried your kids are not learning to write clearly?
Are you stressed about teaching writing?
Do you want your kids prepared to write for school and beyond?
If you answered yes to any of these questions, your kids and you will love this course!
