We’re into our 4th month of school this year, and we’re still loving the WriteShop Primary! Although I’ve only been doing it a couple times a week, our kids are doing quite well. One thing that has really helped us with our writing, is our WriteShop Story Builders!
They’ve been a HUGE help on days when they kids just can’t come up with an idea to write about. I printed them all off and put them in a little 3×5 recipe type box. I let them just grab in and pull out a card so it’s a surprise! If they really don’t like the card they pick, I let them grab another one, it’s really not a big deal, and they always find something fun to write about using the Story Builders!
What types of cards do they offer?
- World of Sports StoryBuilders (e-book) ($7.95)
- StoryBuilders Christmas Mini-Builder (e-book) ($3.95)
- World of Animals StoryBuilders (e-book) ($7.95)
- World of People StoryBuilders (e-book) ($7.95)
Now is a great time for the Christmas Mini-Builder cards, so if you’re kids are having a hard time thinking of things to write about, I encourage you to try the WriteShop Story Builders!
And if you haven’t tried WriteShop yet, take a look! It’s a fun way to get excited about writing! The techniques they use are really engaging and my children are actually excited about writing now instead of dreading it!

In January it will be one full year that we have been homeschooling (well cyber-schooling at home). We love it but writing in still a struggle for both my children and I think would be a big help to us!
I am new to homeschooling and am always looking for fun ways to encourage my children to write.
We’d like to win because we love their products.
