The Best Writing Curriculum for Microschools (And How to Actually Teach It)

EPISODE #119

Today’s episode is all about something that so many educators wrestle with—how to choose and actually teach writing.

 

Let’s be honest: writing is one of those subjects that feels really personal.
It’s not as black and white as math. There’s no one “right answer.”
And if you’ve got reluctant writers—or a mix of ages and skill levels—it can feel downright overwhelming to figure out how to get everyone writing confidently and joyfully.

 

Maybe you’ve thought:

 

  • “I don’t know how to teach writing. I was never taught how to write well myself.”

  • “My kids freeze up when it’s time to write.”

  • “How do I even grade writing or know if they’re making progress?”

  • “Can I even find a writing curriculum that works for different levels and doesn’t feel boring?”

Friend, I hear you. I’ve felt those same things.

 

But I’ve also seen what’s possible when we stop looking for perfect writing mechanics—and start focusing on student voice, purpose, and confidence. And in today’s episode, I’m going to walk you through exactly how to do that.

 

Are you ready? Let’s get started.
