Description
Each level (A, B, or C) presumes no previous experience; levels differ mainly in the type of source texts used, speed of presentation, and sophistication of vocabulary.
Contains:
- Structure and Style Overview DVD for parents and teachers
- Four instructional DVDs for the student
- Three-ring binder with dividers
- Student packet containing scope and sequence, teacher’s notes, and student handouts for one student (about 100 pages in all)
Each level (A, B, or C) presumes no previous experience; levels differ mainly in the type of source texts used, speed of presentation, and sophistication of vocabulary. Choose the level based on your child’s age and maturity rather than writing ability, and if you wish to use the SWI with children of mixed ages, you can generally select level B, “shooting for the middle.” Even students with little writing experience can immediately enjoy Andrew’s humor and realize that the process is not so overwhelming as they learn techniques to create a more enjoyable finished composition. Their concept of writing as being “too hard” changes; they now have the tools for success!
With lesson plans and reinforcement exercises built right in, you’ll know exactly which portion of the disc to watch for each lesson and which writing assignments to give your students.
Please note: If you are using the Student Writing Intensive Level B with students at multiple grade levels, you can find reinforcement assignments for Level A students (3–5 grade) here.

Back in 2001, my kids were in 7th, 5th, and 2nd grades. I wanted to teach them how to write well, but every writing curriculum I looked at or tried seemed to just tell students what to write without teaching them how. Most started with the dreaded blank page and no instruction on how to fill it up. Needless to say, we were all getting frustrated!
Finally, I found out about IEW and decided to give it a try. I am a big picture person, so I sat and watched the entire TWSS in the evenings throughout a couple of weeks. The more I watched, the more excited I became! I couldn’t wait to get started! I finally had the tools I needed to teach my children how to write!
We started, and Units 1 and 2 were incredibly successful! My two older kids took off with it and were writing several paragraphs a week, enjoying the challenge of coming up with the stylistic techniques. I loved how IEW did not separate writing from other subjects, but rather was a tool to help them learn. We found that writing about what we were learning helped us master the material much more effectively.
The kids were building impressive writing notebooks bursting with structural model sheets, style words and examples, key word outlines, and final copies of their compositions. All the tools they needed to write well were in those notebooks. It was great to be able to assign an essay and know that they knew exactly what steps to take to write one. It was also such a joy to go back and read their compositions and see how far they had progressed!
Eventually we started using other IEW materials. The kids always looked forward to Andrew teaching them through DVDs, and we also especially enjoyed using the history theme-based writing lessons and Windows to the World. I have never seen an easier way to learn how to write a literary analysis essay. I would have never been able to teach my kids how to do this well without the Windows course!
Our two older kids are now in college and have been able to easily write all their papers and get excellent grades. They are both so thankful for all they have learned and for having the tools to write any type of paper.
I always say that IEW is, by far, the best homeschool money I have ever spent! Earlier this year I became accredited as an IEW® Registered Instructor, am now teaching IEW co-op classes, and plan to become Certified soon. It is so rewarding to see how well my students are progressing and how excited they are to find out that they really can learn to write well!

Writing was always the most difficult part of our homeschooling. Always tears of frustration from my kids aged 12, 10, and 7. I am so glad one of my friends introduced me to IEW. We are now using the Student Writing Intensive DVDs and there are no more tears. My kids will now happily take notes, write a rough draft, polish it with my help and make their final copy.
