Curriculum Writer.
Alyssa has nearly 20 years of experience writing professionally and over 10 years of experience teaching. In her role as a classroom teacher, Alyssa often noted the dearth of materials and resources for teaching writing. Writing was assigned, writing was graded—but it was rarely taught. Alyssa spent a year reviewing books and curriculum on writing before coming to the conclusion that there weren’t any strong resources available!
To fill this gap, Alyssa spent two years creating writing lessons that teach writing skills. Her signature curriculum is split into three categories: Fundamentals of Writing, the Reading/Writing Connection, and Writer’s Techniques. These lessons can be modified for any level of writer.
