How I Teach Writing Skills | Does Your Homeschool NEED a Writing Curriculum?

Are you wondering how to teach writing skills with your middle school or high school student? In this video, I walk through my 'method' that I've used. I tend to critique the writing instruction included in bundled LA curriculums, usually saying, "Don't rely on this alone, it won't be enough for many kids." And that critique is usually met with the question, "Okay, what writing curriculum do you recommend?"
My answer is a little bit more complicated than that, so I decided to create a video to walk through my process and also to share some of my favorite tools.
Here are those tools:

TPT Resources: Stacey Lloyd has a lot of great lesson plans for targeted, specific writing techniques and skills. I have used quite a few of her lesson plans: www.teacherspayteachers.com/S...
