Great resource for budding writers

My eighth grade son is enrolled in The Potter's School this year for several homeschool classes (online rigorous middle and high school level correspondance/conferencing courses) and his English I class uses The Write Source 2000 as a grammar text and writing reference. As a former eighth grade English teacher, I used an earlier edition of this book 13 years ago in public schools. It is a FABULOUS resource for grammar review and any adventures in expository writing. The instructions are clear and the examples are excellent. It is an engaging text with lots of colorful and amusing illustrations. In my opinion, it is a must have composition and grammar handbook for any student. It covers the writing process, gives specific guidelines and models for the following forms of the standard five paragraph essay: descriptive, narrative, expository, and persuasive. It also covers response to literature, creative writing and does a thorough job of tackling research writing. Other topics include speaking to learn, writing to learn (eg. note taking, journal writing...)and other basic elements of writing: basic grammar, sentence and paragraph structure. Finally, a section called "A Writer's Resource" covers concepts like word choice, "voice" and presentation and a section called "Proofreader's Guide" references punctuation, mechanics, spelling and so on. This text can serve as a grammar and composition course and will also provide an excellent reference for years.
