A complete writing curriculum for every student, K through 12.
Writing Our World® is a mastery-based expository writing curriculum that teaches writing explicitly, from the sentence to the paragraph to the full multi-paragraph essay, in 15 minutes a day at home. Written by dyslexia and learning-behavior specialists, it is designed for any student who struggles with writing, including those with dyslexia, dysgraphia, ADHD, and other learning differences, and it works just as well for confident writers. Made for homeschool families and families using education savings account (ESA) funds.

Is this for my student?
Writing Our World® works for every student, and it was written with one student especially in mind: the one who can read, can think, and still cannot get it onto the page. It is an especially strong fit if your student:
can talk about ideas all day but freezes when asked to write them down
writes short, incomplete, or run-on sentences and avoids anything longer
has dyslexia, dysgraphia, ADHD, or another learning difference
is a year or more behind in writing, whatever the grade level says
has been through a writing program that assumed skills they didn’t have yet
needs one clear routine, repeated daily, instead of a new strategy every week
If you nodded at two or more of those, this was written for your student. If your student is already a confident writer, the same clear steps build a strong foundation for multi-paragraph essays, and they move ahead once they show mastery.
What you get
One annual license. The whole curriculum. Nothing to assemble.
The complete program
Steps 1 through 8: over 100 sequenced lessons from the sentence to the multi-paragraph essay
A slide deck for every lesson with the exact words to say, so you can teach it without a teaching background
Printable student handouts and anchor charts for every lesson
Built-in academic vocabulary and shared geography content, so your student is never inventing ideas from nothing
The tools to see growth
A short placement check (before and after) so you know exactly where your student is starting
Monthly free writes with skill-based rubrics you can score in minutes
Assistive technology routines that teach your student to use speech-to-text and word prediction as supports, not shortcuts
New episodes each week from Kait Feriante, the creator of Writing Our World®, walking through how she teaches each lesson
How it works at home
Fifteen minutes a day. Same routine every time. Your student always knows what to do, how to do it, and how to keep going.
Day one: a ten-minute placement check. Now you know the starting line.
Every day: open the lesson slide deck, read the script, and your student completes the matching handout. Fifteen minutes.
Every step: a short check shows what stuck before you move on. Nothing is skipped, nothing is guessed.
Every month: a free write scored with the rubric so you (and your student) can see the growth on paper.
Step 1 starts at the sentence level on purpose. Every writer needs that base before paragraphs make sense, and most programs skip it. Students who already have it show mastery and move ahead.

Get the Family LicenseQuestions parents ask
Do I need a teaching background?
No. Every lesson comes with a slide deck and the exact words to say. Parents with no teaching experience run this every day.
What grades is it for?
K through 12. The program is skill-based, not grade-based: a 2nd grader and a 10th grader both start where they actually are and move through the same scope and sequence to multi-paragraph essays, moving ahead as they show mastery.
Is it one license per student?
Yes. One license covers one student for 12 months. Two students working through the program need two licenses, and each can be paid from that student’s own account.
Is it new material every year?
No. It is one complete program, about 100 lessons, that most students finish in one school year at 15 minutes a day. A student who finishes does not renew. Renew only if your student is still working through it.
How long does it take?
About 15 minutes a day. Most families complete the program across one school year.
My student has dyslexia. Will this work?
It was written for that. Writing Our World® was built by dyslexia and learning-behavior specialists. The instruction is explicit, the routines are consistent, the pacing is realistic, and assistive technology is taught as a support from day one.
What if I want to try before I buy?
Start for free. Starter Access gives you real Step 1 lessons and Kait Feriante, the creator of Writing Our World®, walking through how she teaches them.
Can I use ESA funds?
Yes, in Texas (TEFA), Arkansas (EFA), and Utah (Utah Fits All, grades 1–12). See our Texas, Arkansas, and Utah pages for the steps.
Writing changes everything.
It gives your student a way to say what they think and who they are. Start with the free lessons, or get the family license and begin tomorrow.
