You are about to embark on a great learning experience! The Write Stuff Adventure will lead you from simple, descriptive sentence writing through essays, interviews, publishing, photojournalism and more. Students will learn to write better letters to grandmother and go on to write an autobiography. They learn the art of interviewing through writing family history and news articles. They start with the basics of organizing and describing and end with the basics of journalism under their belts. Through publishing their work--on the refrigerator, in a letter or in the newspaper--they realize the rewards of work done well and of sharing their writing and photography with their friends, family and members of the community. Dean Rea combines his experinece, both as university professor and award-winning editor of a major newspaper, with the gentleness and grace of a wise and trusted friend. Each lesson is addressed to the student where Mr. Rea's warm regard for and confidence in the student shine through. In addition, he guides both the inexperienced and experienced instructor through the difficulties of teaching writing in simple, easy-to-use "Note to Teacher" sections. An eager student is one who is learning to do things that matter. That is the key to The Write Stuff Adventure. Once begun, the student will enjoy the adventure to its completion, and become adept at the tools of writing in the process.
