The Easy Key Writing Workshop is ninety minutes in length and should be held in a classroom or other suitable venue where students can write.  A screen will be needed for the PowerPoint presentation (Jacqueline provides a LCD projector and computer). Whiteboards are also required.  

In this curriculum based workshop,  the basics to constructing a winning essay  are covered.  Language Arts teachers will appreciate this basic approach which reinforces the same curriculum skills and knowledge that students will need to succeed with their Provincial Exams. 

Language Arts Tips teach the students the power of using the basic building blocks of good writing.  Writing exercises to stretch the imagination are teamed with proper form to show students how building their story from the inside out makes sure no marks are lost.  Rookie writing mistakes can and should be avoided.  

THe  methods  involved in proper and complete story construction  assure students know what goes into a superior piece of writing.  The reasons these elements are so crucial is demonstrated so that students will use them not just in an exam situation, but for everyday assignments whether they are in Language Arts, SOcial Studies or any other classes.

Jacqueline believes that abstract thought and unrestrained imagination combined with solid writing basics will help students succeed with their exams.

For those students who suffer from Exam Anxiety, Jacqueline provides the Easy Key to writing essays which will improve scores on the Provincial Language Arts Test.  Armed with this fool proof system, students can face that blank page with renewed confidence and competence.

Other thoughts...

 The most important tool in the writer's toolbox is reading!

To write, you must read. Reading is emphasized as a critical foundation for any future undertaking, whether it’s being a writer, an astronaut or an accountant.

Reading is the key to their future; they just don't know it yet!

Students are encouraged to take a chance on themselves and aim high. They can make their dreams come true!
