Writing Through Unprecedented Times (Middle Level)

Welcome.

I’m Angela, and I’m glad that you’re here.

I know you’re probably out of your routine.

I know you must have a lot of questions right now, too.

So, here’s what you need to know.

This is an online writing class that is designed for middle school students.
Once you register below, you will have access to 8 different lessons. They can be found right here. You will not see them unless you are signed in, though!
Each lesson will invite you to do a bit of learning and a bit of creating.
You will have a lot of choice as you do.
By the end of this class, you will have made a piece of writing that you can be proud of.

Still have questions?

Of course you do. That’s why I created the set of frequently asked questions below. Read them carefully, and if you need to know more, please reach out to your teacher. He or she will help you. If that isn’t possible, your teacher will reach out to me directly. I will not be able to interact with students in this space.

Once you are registered and ready to begin, you will find all of the lessons right here—> Writing Through Unprecedented Times.

This is what you can expect in each lesson:

Video Lessons

Daily mini-lessons, led by me–Angela. Each lesson will be just a few minutes long, and it will prepare you to do a bit of writing on your own.

Mentor Texts

Some lessons will rely on mentor texts. These are bits of writing created by other authors. We will use them as models for our own work.

A Writing Challenge

Each day, you will be challenged to do a bit of writing on your own.

Please register here. You will not be charged, but you will need to be registered in order to access the Lessons.

Do I need parent/guardian permission in order to register?

It is my understanding that if you have registered for this course you have done so with the support of your teacher and parent/guardian. I also understand that all parties will hold me, Angela Stockman, harmless for your activities here or online in general, as you complete this course.

This course is not interactive. Participants will not be made aware of who other participants are. Commenting features will be deactivated. Privacy will be protected, and your data will never be shared.

What do I have to produce?

This course will guide you through a writing process that enables you to create a draft. Your teacher will define the terms of your assignment and what will be due when. All work will be submitted to your teacher.

When do I have to do this work?

This course is self-paced and may be accessed anytime and anywhere, online. You can complete lessons when you like, return to them as you need to, and pause your learning and work at any time. Your teacher may have additional parameters for you to follow.

Can I access this on my phone?

Yes. Many people tell me they complete my courses this way. If you are unable to do so efficiently, know that everything is accessible from a computer as well, and it may look better there.

Should I write on paper or use a digital tool?

Your teacher will advise you here.

What if I can't access the course?
