Kidswrite Basic
If you are new to Brave Writer, the KWB course is where to begin. KWB is the foundational Brave Writer course, which empowers mothers to teach their children to write through an interactive format on the Brave Writer website. Freewriting, keen observation, revising, editing, and publishing are all taught in entirely new ways (not seen in other curricula).
In this class, mothers interact directly with the instructor. As you work with your children, the instructor will suport you, answer your questions and give you guidance sothat you succeed in becoming your child’s best writing coach and ally.
