I am interested to hear how you ended up incorporating this in along side LOE. We had to drop SL LA, it was never getting done but I agree, Brave Writer has always been so intriguing. I am loving the Growing Brave writers book as well!
Did you find the Growing Brave Writers guide beneficial? Can you buy that and use it to go teach writing ? I understand projects are in the other two - so are you able to implement anything with just the Growing Brave Writers guide? And are you using projects from jot it down or partnership writing? I'm leaning towards partnership even though my daughter is 7 because I think the projects will fit her abilities better.
Hi…I’m planning to start Brave writer for my 3rd grader. We’re doing lightning literature that my son loves especially the book selection and reading comprehension. Does Brave writer has reading comprehension question in the curriculum to go with read aloud.
So torn between using the brave writer emerging writer bundle or going with tgatb. I’m already doing all about reading which my daughter loves but I want to add in writing/grammar. I wish I could do all three but I don’t want to overload her. Brave writer and tgatb but look really good. Love all your videos- new subscriber!
They are both such good programs - I would say the biggest difference I could see would be if YOU would prefer more of an open and go curriculum (TGTB) or if you like a little more flexibility (BW)!
The only thing I had printed was the Growing Brave Writer and it was $38 through their Homeschool Printing Company deal ... everything else I have just printed a bit at a time at home.
This video was so helpful! I was confused by how the program works together, so this was extremely clarifying! Thank you!
So glad it was helpful!

This reminds me a lot of Layers of Learning Writer’s Workshop. You could honestly use them in conjunction if you wanted more ideas.
Thanks!
I would love to know if you were starting from scratch now, with everything you know, would would your language arts program be from pre-k on?
I'm not sure, but that is a great video idea!

I like the projects in Partnership better than JID!
This is really helpful. I have always been interested in Brave Writer. I love Julie's books but haven't purchased any curriculum yet.
Glad it was helpful!
So I’m looking on the website is this the emerging writers bundle? that would include all of these elements?
I think so! It would include Partnership Writing, Growing Brave Writers and the Darts!

Not so much ... there is only a few questions and they are more discussion starters vs comp questions!
Is that Growing Brave writers program only a printable pdf of can I buy a printed already bound version?
I’m pretty sure it is only pdf but they have an agreement with the Homewchool Printing Company!

You talk about incorporating this into your homeschool, but would this be considered a full LA program? Minus spelling.
100% YES! I just wasn’t ready to use only BW, but I know lots of people who do 😀
How much did it cost for you to print this?
